HR Hotline Live: From Offer Letter to Severance Agreement

ABOUT THIS EVENT

This program was approved for 1 HRCI and 1 SHRM credit.


Despite an employer’s best intentions, too many disputes arise due to avoidable contractual or documentary mistakes.

The use of AI to draft these documents has only exacerbated the problem, as AI frequently fails to anticipate important legal issues.   

In this interactive HR Hotline Live webinar, CBIA HR counsel Diane Mokriski and Carmody Torrance Sandak & Hennessey attorneys Vincent Farisello and Nick Zaino will discuss common errors and explain how to avoid costly disputes. 

We’ll examine real-world issues that routinely create problems for employers, including: 

  • Commission plans that create post-employment payment obligations 
  • PIPs and offer letters that void at-will employment 
  • Illegal clawback provisions 
  • Unenforceable severance agreements   

As always, this HR Hotline Live program is driven by your questions. Do you document hiring, compensation, or termination terms?

If so, don’t miss this opportunity to ensure they accomplish what you intended. Bring your toughest questions and we’ll answer them live. 


HR problems or issues? Email or call CBIA’s Diane Mokriski or Delmarina López at the HR Hotline (860.244.1900). The HR Hotline is a free service for CBIA member companies.
