ADP Virtual Classroom Schedule:
August & September 2020 webinars for employees, managers and compliance.
While workplaces across the country begin to gradually reopen and employees return to work, employers have to make sure they’re up to date on the latest COVID-19 compliance information in order to avoid costly wage and hour landmines. To help, ADP® has partnered with ComplianceHR and Littler law firm to bring you our latest “COVID-19 Compliance” webinar, designed to help your company better uncover and correct COVID-19 related wage-hour compliance.
