Illinois has enacted numerous employment-related laws this year, many of which take effect at the start of 2025. These wide-ranging reforms could have a considerable impact on employers’ policies and day-to-day operations. These changes also bring important legal concerns for employers to understand and address, as they prepare for the new year.
Join Taft for a fast-paced and practical discussion about the multiple changes affecting Illinois employers and employees into 2025, including:
- Significant updates to the Illinois Human Rights Act, adding protected classes and extending the deadline for filing discrimination and retaliation claims.
- Pay transparency in job posting amendments and new pay mandates for temporary workers and independent contractors.
- New employer requirements involving mandatory meetings, personnel records, E-Verify, and more.
- An overview of the ever-changing landscape of restrictive covenants.
Presented by: Heather Jackson, Ben Morrell, Andrew Murphy, Julie Ratliff, David Weinstein, and Elizabeth Wellhausen.
