Why:
• A reliable and timely information source for in-house counsel, HR management, media, industry thought-leaders, legislators, the legal community, and more.
• Expert guest commentators offer insight on matters impacting the workplace.
Mission:
“Our goal is to help senior legal and human resources executives stay ahead of the curve on key issues and opportunities,” said Richard Hankins, Team Leader for Kilpatrick Stockton’s Labor and Employment Law Practice. “There are some excellent web sites covering labor and employment law developments, but for the most part they tend to focus on recent court decisions and other things that have already occurred. We felt there was a need to keep business leaders advised on workplace regulatory developments that are on the near-term and long-term horizon. Just as EFCAUpdates.com focused on Congress’ consideration of the Employee Free Choice Act, WorkplaceHorizons.com will track other labor and employment bills, pending cases, and legal trends that might impact a company’s strategic planning.”
