    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode, Francine Esposito of Day Pitney explored the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) General Counsel&apos;s recent recommendations that stay-or-pay, moonlighting and non-competition agreements be deemed unlawful under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), a pivotal federal labor law that applies to unionized and non-unionized workplaces alike. Esposito explained the General Counsel advocates for broad &quot;make-whole&quot; relief, which would require employers to compensate employees for speculative lost wages and benefits resulting from these provisions.

The factory management had paid home visits to workers to check whether the worker’s sick leave was legitimate.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In 2019, the EU issued the European Parliament and Council Directive (EU) 2019/1937 on the protection of persons who report breaches of EU law. This directive has obliged all member states to implement comprehensive whistleblower protection regulation by December 2021, aiming to ensure that individuals who report misconduct or illegal activities within organizations are safeguarded from retaliation. <br/><br/>While all other EU member states have successfully introduced their respective regulations, Poland has been notably delayed in this process. The delay has not gone unnoticed, as Poland has already faced sanctions from the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) for failing to meet the directive&apos;s deadline. <br/><br/>However, there is significant progress to report. On June 14, 2024, Poland has adopted its Whistleblower Protection Act. Most of the new legislation came into force on September 25th, 2024. This new legislation marks a pivotal step towards aligning with EU standards and providing essential protections for whistleblowers within the country. <br/><br/>Today, we will be discussing the European Directive on whistleblower protection and the new Polish Whistleblower Protection Act, especially from the viewpoint of Polish employers. <br/><br/>Host: <a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/august-debouzy/attorneys/philippe-durand'>Philippe Durand</a> (<a href='mailto:pdurand@august-debouzy.com?cc=podcast@ela.law&amp;subject=Employment%20Matters%20Podcast%20Inquiry'>email</a>) (<a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/august-debouzy'>August Debouzy</a> / France)<br/><br/>Guest Speaker: <a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/miller-canfield-babicki-chelchowski-wspolnicy/attorneys/katarzyna-komolibio'>Katarzyna Komolibio</a> (<a href='mailto:komolibio@millercanfield.com?cc=podcast@ela.law&amp;subject=Employment%20Matters%20Podcast%20Inquiry'>email</a>) (<a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/miller-canfield-babicki-chelchowski-wspolnicy'>Miller Canfield</a> / Poland)</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/223251/support">Support the show</a></p><p>Register on the ELA website <a href='https://www.ela.law/registration'>here</a> to receive email invitations to future programs. </p>]]></description>

    <title>462: The US Federal Trade Commission&#39;s New Rule on Non-Competes</title>
    <itunes:summary><![CDATA[In July 2021, President Biden issued an Executive Order which encouraged the Federal Trade Commission to curtail the unfair use of non-compete clauses and other clauses that may unfairly limit worker mobility.  The FTC recently proposed a new rule that would ban employers from imposing non-competes on their workers - the FTC is seeking public comment on this proposed rule.

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Transformational leaders challenge the status quo, provide a vision of a promising future, and  inspire their followers to join in the pursuit of a better world. But many of these leaders also fit the American Psychiatric Association classification for Narcissistic Personality Disorder. They are grandiose, entitled, self-confident, risk seeking, manipulative, and hostile. In this webinar to podcast, Professor Chatman reviews what we know about why we are often susceptible to (mis)perceiving narcissists as transformational leaders and how we can avoid this bias. She will also discuss what we know about how narcissistic leaders affect organizations, including creating unreasonable risk, and cultures that are lower in integrity and collaboration, and how these negative consequences can be mitigated.  Professor Chatman&apos;s writings can be found <a href='http://faculty.haas.berkeley.edu/chatman/chatman.html?_ga=2.230308892.1853214715.1596743602-1897356738.1596027348'>here</a>.<br/><br/>Subscribe to our podcast today to stay up to date on employment issues from law experts worldwide.<br/><br/>Speakers: <a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/ela-global/Attorneys/Peter-Walts'>Peter Walts</a> (<a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/ela-global'>Employment Law Alliance</a> / Global), <a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/millernash-or/attorneys/naomi-haslitt'>Naomi Haslitt</a> (<a href='https://www.ela.law/firms/millernash-or'>Miller Nash Graham &amp; Dunn LLP</a> / Oregon) &amp; <a href='http://faculty.haas.berkeley.edu/chatman/chatman.html?_ga=2.230308892.1853214715.1596743602-1897356738.1596027348'>Jennifer Chatman</a> (Distinguished Professor of Management / Haas School of Business, Univ. of California, Berkeley)</p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/223251/support">Support the show</a></p><p>Register on the ELA website <a href='https://www.ela.law/registration'>here</a> to receive email invitations to future programs. </p>]]></description>
