It will highlight the major priorities of key federal agencies&amp;mdash;including the Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission&amp;mdash;and explains how their enforcement strategies are evolving.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;They will focus on emerging issues such as AI in the workplace, pay transparency, requests for reasonable accommodation and restrictions on noncompete agreements. Participants will gain insight into the most significant risks facing employers, from wage-and-hour audits to discrimination claims and recent employee activism in the workplace, and will leave the webinar with practical steps organizations can take now to prepare for a year of heightened oversight and rapidly shifting rules.&lt;/p&gt;
