  • Remote or In Office? Changing How We Communicate and Resolve Differences.

    Remote or In Office? Changing How We Communicate and Resolve Differences.
    May 19 2026
    What are irreconcilable workplace differences, and are they on the rise? Trickier issues are coming up these days and are challenging the status quo. As how and where we work changes, when do misunderstandings become a disruption, and what do we do next? Fact is, the workplace is a social situation as much as a labor issue, and learning how we interact with each other is more important than ever. Friendships, relationships, cliques, supervisory roles, and generational gaps factor into the workplace environment. And then there’s the law. It’s a lot to digest. Working from home, a return to work in the office, and an increasing understanding of mental health and workplace balance are all creating frictions and new challenges. Remote work since the pandemic has only complicated issues. Communication is more important than ever. And it’s not easy. Workplaces are made of humans. And we’re all human. When all you have is a hammer, all problems look like a nail. When we’re litigators, maybe litigation looks like the solution. But sometimes, understanding the bigger picture and the humanity, and addressing issues before they become lawsuits, come into play. This discussion may change the way you think.

  • Religious Employers and Employment Law: Whose Rights?

    Religious Employers and Employment Law: Whose Rights?
    Feb 17 2026
    Religious organizations and their employees fall into a murky and often-overlooked area of labor and employment law. Guests James “Jim” Paul and Michael Subit practice in employment and labor law and are versed in the world of religious employers and their workers. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act carves out some interesting exemptions in employment law regarding religion-based businesses, but some recent court rulings seem to conflict with each other. Paul and Subit join host Matt Greer to delve into what constitutes a “religious employer” and where religious beliefs and practices challenge existing employment laws. A recent appeals court ruling spells out nine questions regarding religion-based retailers, religious hospitals, and other businesses. Is it created for profit? Does it make a secular product? Do articles of incorporation state a religious purpose? All of these considerations may matter. This issue goes way beyond practicing a religion. Consider same sex marriage, certain behaviors, and reproductive rights. Hear how quickly employer and employee rights can conflict. Is a Supreme Court showdown on the horizon?

  • Where Immigration and Employment Laws Collide, A Global Perspective

    Where Immigration and Employment Laws Collide, A Global Perspective
    Jan 20 2026
    Coming to us from the November ABA Labor and Employment Section’s annual conference, we bring together two employment law experts with unique perspectives on the nexus of immigration and employment law. Representing workers, guest Monica Guizar works with the Service Employees International Union, while Marcia Longdon of the firm Kingsley Napley brings an employer – as well as an international – perspective. Dramatic policy shifts crafted by the Trump Administration’s immigration policies are shaking up both immigration and employment law. Recently, Guizar says, we’ve seen immigration raids at workplaces, along with mass deportations. In some cases, the U.S. government has even removed legal status from workers who previously had permission to work. Even workers on skilled labor visas are impacted. Based in the United Kingdom, Longdon sees some similarities in policy shifts both there and in the U.S. as politics plays a role in immigration and labor issues. She explains international guidelines for hiring workers across borders to fill specific needs. One thing is clear, workers, employers, and employment lawyers are left to untangle swirling regulations and enforcement policies. Now throw in individual state laws and union representation issues. It’s a new world.
