The workplace landscape is shifting fast in 2025, and keeping up with new laws and enforcement trends has never been more important. To help employers navigate these changes, Constangy is hosting a webinar on Feb. 6 at 1 pm ET/10 am PT. The session, led by partners Geri Lynn Arrindell and Dean Kpere-Daibo, will focus on key legal developments and enforcement trends impacting employers nationwide and how they can prepare for the evolving labor and employment law landscape under the new administration.
