&lt;p style="margin:0in"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;The past three years have seen new HR law developments that have had a profound impact on the construction industry. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin:0in"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin:0in"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12px;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;The New York State Paid Family Leave Act, the COVID and Sick Leave Act, the Wage Theft Act and others have influenced how the industry works. There have been amendments that have changed some of these laws since they were enacted. This class will discuss the law, the changes, and the resulting impact of these laws on our industry since they were enacted. Construction attorneys Ed Sheats, Jason Bailey and Diana Plue will share real life case impacts and examples. They welcome your questions and your predictions. &lt;a href="http://www.theconstructionlaw.com" style="color:#0563c1; text-decoration:underline"&gt;www.theconstructionlaw.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
