Assignment 1: Management Team Briefing on Employment Laws

Avoiding similar experiences is a high priority and your thorough presentation to the management team is the first big step to success.
Prepare a fifteen to twenty (15-20) slide PowerPoint presentation in which you:
- Include cover, agenda, conclusion, and reference list slides, all of which may count toward total slide count.
- Provide a 1-2 slide overview of employment law based on information found in Chapter 1 of Employment Law for Human Resource Practice. NOTE: You may use your discretion to decide what information needs to be addressed as long as your overview is descriptive and relevant.
