ACC - WMACCA Employment and Labor Forum

This program will examine the intersection between statistics and employment law, from both a labor economist’s perspective and a practitioner’s perspective.  The presenters will provide a crash course in statistics and how they are used in employment matters, focusing on “real-life” applications in the context of litigation, reductions-in-force, OFCCP audits, and proactive self-audits of personnel activity and compensation.  The presenters will also address the impact of the Dukes v. Wal-Mart decision on the use of statistics -- what has changed and what has not.  Finally, the presenters will identify “best practices” for organizations that are interested in performing statistical analyses to identify pay equity and other issues.

Kris Meade is one of the speakers at this event.
