That’s What She Said: Labor & Employment Law Lessons from The Office

November 11 @ 5:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Michael Scott’s workplace antics may be played for laughs, but they raise real labor and employment law questions.

Michael Scott’s workplace antics may be played for laughs, but they raise real labor and employment law questions. Drawing on the characters and storylines of the beloved sitcom The Office, McCarter & English attorney Matthew Windman will explore issues such as harassment and discrimination, workplace safety, union organizing, family and medical leave, discipline and termination, and workplace privacy and confidentiality. The program brings the show’s familiar workplace comedy together with practical labor and employment law.
