Workplace Law Talks is a national virtual series of eight one-hour sessions, one every Tuesday from Oct. 6 to Nov. 24, 2026.
Each session pairs a leading employment or labour law expert with a focused presentation and live Q&A, with the last 15 minutes reserved for your questions. Join from your desk over lunch or a morning coffee. No travel, no full day away.
One registration covers the full series, and every session is recorded, so you can catch up on anything you miss.
Keeping up with the rulings that matter.
Handling terminations, accommodation and investigations.
Looking for plain-language answers to complex questions.
Eight sessions, every Tuesday from 1 to 2 p.m. ET (10 to 11 a.m. PT). Missed one? Every registration includes the recordings of sessions that have already aired.
What to do when new allegations surface mid-process, how to handle difficult or uncooperative parties, and the newer forms of discrimination investigators need to watch for. Practical tools for keeping investigations focused and defensible.
Nathaniel Marshall, Marshall Workplace Law
The Ontario Court of Appeal's shift from word-by-word review of termination clauses to a contextual reading, what it means for ESA saving language, and what counts as just cause today.
Stuart Rudner, Rudner Law and Rudner ADR
Termination clauses, the duty to accommodate, leaves of absence and hiring compliance, plus how to coordinate compliance across provinces, including Quebec.
Lai-King Hum, Hum Law Firm
How one dismissal can trigger several overlapping claims, how employees use them strategically, and what Canada can learn from the U.K., New Zealand and the unionized sector.
Kelly VanBuskirk, VanBuskirk Law
Why accommodation is a test of leadership, not just a compliance task: the good-faith standard, handling requests that arrive under suspicion, and why treating accommodation purely as risk management backfires.
Peter Vlaar, In Good Counsel
Restrictive covenants, confidentiality obligations, fiduciary duties and urgent injunctions: what holds up in recent case law, and how to protect customers and confidential information when a departure turns competitive.
Matthew Badrov, Isabelle Duclos and Paul Pulver, Littler LLP
Why AI initiatives stall when leadership and governance fall behind, and a governance lens for decision rights, early signs of eroding trust and protecting judgment without slowing innovation.
Ori Schibi, PM Konnectors
Termination disputes are often decided before the termination meeting. From early warning signs to performance improvement plans to deciding when enough is enough.
