The HR Decisions That Carry Legal Risk in 2026
2026 is not business as usual for HR. From expanding pay transparency laws and AI regulation to immigration delays and enforcement risk, compliance is moving faster and carrying higher stakes. This practical, no-noise webinar breaks down what changed, what’s coming next, and what HR leaders must act on now to protect their organizations.
You’ll leave this session equipped with:
- A clear snapshot of the most impactful federal and state compliance changes taking effect in 2026
- A risk-based framework to prioritize what actually needs action versus what can wait
- Practical talking points to brief executives, managers, and legal partners with confidence
- Greater confidence navigating gray areas where the law is evolving faster than policy
You’ll learn to:
- Identify 2026 compliance changes that pose the greatest operational and financial risk
- Translate complex legal updates into actionable HR processes and policies
- Prepare your organization for enforcement, audits, and employee scrutiny
- Anticipate downstream impacts to hiring, pay practices, leave, and workforce strategy
- Lead compliance conversations proactively instead of reacting after issues arise
