Take Charge of Business at the Texas Business Conference in El Paso

The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) invites El Paso-area employers, human resource professionals, business owners and managers to the Texas Business Conference employment law update on Friday, Feb. 26, at the El Paso Marriott Hotel. The conference will provide valuable information for employers and business owners concerning the legal issues associated with operating a business in Texas.
 
“This conference is an opportunity for employers to learn current state and federal laws that directly affect businesses and their success,” said TWC Commissioner Representing Employers Ruth R. Hughs.
 
Employers will receive practical, up-to-date information for operating a successful business and techniques to more effectively manage employees. Seminar topics will include: Texas employment law and the basics of hiring; federal and Texas wage and hour laws; the unemployment claim and appeal process; independent contractors; and employee policy handbooks.
 
Participants will receive the latest edition of the popular publication Especially for Texas Employers, which addresses basic legal issues regarding hiring, post-employment and work-separation policies. Certified public accountants who attend can earn six hours of continuing education credit, and other conference participants may qualify for general professional credit. The conference is from 8:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m. at the El Paso Marriott Hotel, located at 1600 Airway Blvd. in El Paso. Attendees may check in from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. The cost to attend is $125 per person and is nonrefundable. Space is limited, so participants are encouraged to register as soon as possible.
