The other day I came across the strange realization that I had not written about anti-Semitism in the 15 years that I’ve been writing this blog.
(I also came across the realization that automatic e-mail links to recent posts had also not been going out properly, if you’re wondering why you’re getting e-mails again now.)
As I’ve said in prior posts, the General Assembly isn’t exactly precise at times when writing legislation. (One is reminded by the quote regarding sausage making.)
One issue that pops up from time to time is whether an employer need be “Connecticut-based” to be covered by Connecticut state laws, particularly as it applies to
Imagine, hypothetically, that you are the head of a massive technology company. You decide one day that you want to layoff, say, 50 percent of the workforce tomorrow while offering employees a severance agreement. What should you know?
My colleagues, Gabe Jiran and Keegan Drenosky, did a whole webinar on the subject last month that
A few months ago, I wrote about how artificial intelligence was being introduced in the workplace.
At the ABA Annual Labor & Employment Conference last week, a whole panel discussion was devoted to the legal ramifications of using artificial intelligence — particularly in hiring decisions.

However, one topic that I was interested in
On November 1 at 9 a.m., I’ll be making a return appearance to WNPR’s award-winning Where We Live show. You can listen live or download it as a podcast.
Tomorrow’s topic is one that we never would’ve dreamed of years ago — Long COVID.
Long COVID is the term that the CDC uses to
Whether you call this season “fall” or “pumpkin spice latte time”, I like to call it — “It’s CHRO Annual Report Season!”
Yes, I admit I’m a stat nerd when it comes to the CHRO Annual Report. If you’re new to this blog, the CHRO Annual Report provides all the statistics from the last fiscal
Engaging in the interactive process is an important — and sometimes overlooked — part of an employer’s response to a request for a reasonable accommodation under state and federal law.
I talked about this way back in 2008 (!) when the state Supreme Court released it’s landmark Curry v. Allen S. Goodman decision expanding the
Sometimes it’s hard to appreciate how things have changed since the pandemic hit and the challenges we face going forward.
I was thinking about all those little things over the weekend when I put pocket change in my little “change jar” that I keep in my bedroom.
You see, prior to the pandemic, at the
When I got my first Macintosh computer in college, I was fascinated by little soundbites that you could add and play.
One of my favorites was a clip from the movie “2001” where Hal, the seemingly sentient space computer, says to an astronaut: “I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that” in response to
