• Rapidly build trusted and inclusive partnerships with our People team and provide clear insights to address concerns and reach best outcomes.
• Review, interpret, draft, and update company policies and procedures.
• Monitor legislation, regulations, case law and government enforcement activities relating to relevant employment law areas, and surface key developments, trends, and risks to relevant Legal, People, and business partners.
• Help build a robust corporate compliance program, including assisting with enhancing and maintaining employment policies, processes, and training programs with scalable frameworks.
