Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

235 - Littler Lounge: Workplace Violence Prevention and Crisis Response
Q: How do mental health accommodation requests intersect with workplace violence prevention, and how can employers balance compassion with their responsibility to protect the workforce?
Fiss says employers should assess whether there is a specific safety risk, consider appropriate leave or discipline, and evaluate how the employee may react to difficult news. Employers may need an interactive accommodation process or a fitness-for-duty assessment, while communicating respectfully and taking steps to protect the workplace.
235 - Littler Lounge: Workplace Violence Prevention and Crisis Response
Q: What are some of the most common misconceptions employers have about workplace violence prevention, and what can developing a safe workplace look like?
Fiss says employers should not expect a one-size-fits-all or strictly linear threat assessment. Employers may need to balance privacy, disability accommodation, and safety concerns, and should not assume that a cease-and-desist letter or restraining order will stop the behavior.
236 - Littler Lounge: AI at Work - A Reality Check on Adoption, Efficiency and Employee Use
Q: How are employers navigating that higher-stake situation in the world of leave and accommodation?
Torres says employers should assess AI-drafted accommodation requests using their established legal analysis and processes, rather than being swayed by polished wording. AI may help track deadlines and required steps, but should not make the final accommodation determination.
236 - Littler Lounge: AI at Work - A Reality Check on Adoption, Efficiency and Employee Use
Q: What are we seeing in terms of AI adoption in the workplace from a big picture 10,000 foot view?
Employers are investing in AI tools but often are not seeing the measurable results they expected. Employee uncertainty, adoption challenges, and the way tools fit into existing workflows can limit their impact.
234 - Littler Lounge: Caught in a TRAP? Navigating the New Laws on Stay-or-Pay Agreements
Q: What are the key differences between California and New York in their stay-or-pay laws?
California imposes explicit restrictions with narrow exceptions (e.g., for transfer credentials and some discretionary payments) and includes penalties and private rights of action, while New York bans promissory notes unless the bonus is optional, and it expands the exception for transferable credentials to include a wider range of certifications, creating a more flexible but still regulated regime.
