ABA Current HR Hot Topics: Financial and Regulatory Pressures
Telephone Briefing*

This recording of the live, ninety-minute briefing held on May 14th, examines the four major challenges currently confronting bank HR professionals:

  • Downsizing
  • FMLA issues
  • Overtime Exemptions 
  • EEO-1/AAP Compliance

With disruptions to loan activity, some banks are confronting challenges when it comes to staffing, reductions in force, and performance management issues that have not appeared in many years. At the same time, we are witnessing new employment regulation and enforcement activity, which creates additional potential liabilities. In short, 2008 is already turning out to be a very challenging time from a human resource management perspective.
