This Continuing Legal Education (CLE) webinar provides an in-depth examination of how the proposed DOLE Act may reshape the legal landscape surrounding the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA). Designed for attorneys, HR professionals, and compliance officers, the session will explore key statutory changes, emerging interpretations, and the practical implications for employers and service members alike.

Managing Partner Sean Timmons will guide participants through the historical framework of USERRA, highlighting its core protections and enforcement mechanisms. The program will then analyze the provisions of the DOLE Act, focusing on how the legislation could expand liability, alter employer obligations, and strengthen protections for members of the uniformed services.

Attendees will gain practical insights into compliance strategies, risk mitigation, and best practices for advising clients or managing workforce policies in light of these developments. Real-world scenarios and case studies will be discussed to illustrate how the DOLE Act may impact litigation trends and administrative enforcement.

Topics include:

• overview of USERRA: rights, responsibilities, and enforcement;
• key provisions of the DOLE Act and proposed amendments;
• expanded employer obligations and potential liabilities;
• impact on litigation, claims, and dispute resolution; and
• best practices for compliance and policy updates.
