      <title>HR Legal &amp; Legislative Update (Thursday, November 12, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Navigating the HR Legal Landscape with our Expert Tour Guide.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Join us on Thursday, November 12, 2026, at the Williamsport Country Club from 8a to 10a. Presented by Adam Long, ESQ.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;**BRING A GUEST OR BECOME A NEW MEMBER WITH US AND YOU’LL BE ENTERED TO WIN A $25 GIFT CARD. THE DRAWING WILL BE HELD AT THE CONCLUSION OF THE MEETING.**&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;When you want to know the right information at the right time, good counsels is essential. The presenter for this session is Adam Long; a labor and employment attorney and Member of McNees Wallace &amp;amp; Nurick LLC in Harrisburg. Adam regularly counsels employers on a wide range of labor and employment law issues, including wage and hour compliance, employment discrimination, employee leaves of absence, labor relations, and employee management. Adam represents employers with union-represented workforces in collective bargaining negotiations and grievance arbitrations. He also represents employers in single plaintiff and class-based employment litigation matters and before various governmental agencies, including the National Labor Relations Board, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the U.S. Department of Labor.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;At our human resources legal and legislative update, attendees can expect a high-impact comprehensive overview of the rapidly shifting regulatory landscape shaping today’s workplaces and an overview of recent changes to federal, state, and local employment laws. HR professionals, business owners, and legal counsel will gain a clear understanding of the shifting legal enforcement priorities from key agencies like the EEOC and Department of Labor, helping organizations stay ahead of compliance deadlines before costly violations occur.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Participants walk away with practical strategies to minimize corporate liability and modernize their internal operations. An interactive Q&amp;amp;A segment, providing a valuable forum to discuss emerging workforce trends, share peer-to-peer insights, and get direct clarification on pressing compliance dilemmas is also a key component.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
