9:00 What’s Now?!? Employment Law and You in 2024
Alexander L. "Alex" Maultsby, Ramseur Maultsby LLP, Greensboro
Patti W. Ramseur, Ramseur Maultsby LLP, Greensboro
Every business has people. And every business with people has problems to solve. Patti Ramseur and Alex Maultsby practice employment law, providing advice to in-house counsel, HR professionals, and C-suite officers. They lead this session as a panel discussion that focuses on several "people problems" that hit the in-house counsel desk most frequently: disabilities and accommodations, employee v. independent contractor status, remote work, managing changes in non-compete laws, and the state of DOL rulemaking around salary payments—and perhaps more depending on what red flags have been raised by February 2024.

International trade and foreign investment laws are changing quickly, particularly as a result of the heated political environment in Washington, D.C., and rising tensions between the U.S. and China. Even companies that are traditionally out of the flood plain need to heed the potential for a 100-year flood!
Hear in-house counsel from a leading multinational company and leading attorneys from around the country discuss the challenges of international trade compliance, including recent developments in sanctions and export controls. They also discuss import controls, including enforcement of the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) and country of origin determinations in antidumping/countervailing duty investigations.
Finally, they discuss the impact of the new Executive Order's proposed, first-ever "outbound" capital controls on investments in high technology involving China and what it means for existing and prospective businesses and investments.
