Workplace Discrimination Against Muslims: What Muslims Face in the Modern Workplace and What Advocates Need to Know to Protect Their Rights

Human Trafficking: A Primer for Employment Law Practitioners
Human trafficking is a very serious issue that has received a lot of media attention in recent years. Did you know that it could affect your employment law practice, too? Professor Ruth Silver Taube discusses how to incorporate human trafficking causes of action into the employment cases you already file. Many workers who are trafficked to California solely to fill positions in the workforce wind up suffering further workplace indignities and violations once they arrive, including discrimination, harassment, and wage and hour violations.
The webinars and seminars range in price between $25-$100.
NELA’s CLE catalog is also available.
CELA is a State Bar of California approved MCLE provider (#2292).
