Well, you have to give the state some credit for trying.

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ll be speaking today at a program run by the CHRO about the new law the changes the CHRO’s procedures.  It appears to be part of a concerted effort by various agencies to reach out to businesses in the state more.

In fact, the program today is just part of several programs being put on by various agencies.  The CHRO is sponsoring another program next week entitled: Civil Rights is GOOD for Business Employer Seminar.   It will be held on Wednesday, October 26th from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. at the State Capitol, Room 310.

It is open to the public though employers are asked to RSVP to Cheryl Sharp at cheryl.sharp@ct.gov.

The program will discuss the services available to employers and some of the best practices that employers can implement.

Not to be left out, the Connecticut Department of Labor also has two upcoming programs on the new Paid Sick Leave law.  Details on those programs are available here.
