Show Notes

While there have been many laws instituted and policies established, there are still many instances of minors working inappropriately. In today’s episode, Chuck and John dive into multiple situations where minors were hired to work in situations that were unlawful. This can relate to hours worked or assigned tasks. Beyond the procedures you need to think about when working with minors, what should you be aware of when working with a staffing agency? Listen to find out.

Chuck and John also discuss level-setting and discussion expectations with small business owners and CEOs around what they expect from HR. They go into how to approach conversations around what you, as an HR professional, are there to support. Additionally, how to make sure HR is “at the table” rather than “on the table” during important strategic discussions.
