Stearns Weaver Miller Releases Innovative Program with Help from Award-Winning Journalist and Local Production Company

Stearns Weaver Miller announced that it has released “Breaking Through the Noise: Labor & Employment Issues Post-Pandemic”, their much anticipated 2.5 hour “TV news” program. Available to view anytime from Wednesday, June 16 at noon through Sunday, June 20 at midnight, the innovative special addresses employment issues HR professionals and other executives need to know about in a post-pandemic business environment.

“For the last 30 years, we have put on an all-day conference attended by hundreds of the top human resources professionals across Florida. With crystal balls, juggling, game shows, and interactive polls, our attendees always have a blast. Since the seminar was cancelled again due to COVID-19, and we know that everyone was zoomed and webinared out, we wanted to provide a completely different experience for our clients and friends,” said Shareholder Bob Turk, Chair of the Firm’s Labor & Employment Department.

The program is hosted by six-time Emmy-winning journalist Laurie Jennings, whose backstage and on-camera expertise and professionalism elevated the production to the next level.

The Firm collaborated with Miami-based production company Bonomotion on creative direction. Bonomotion assisted with the in-studio and on-site client interview filming direction and production, as well as with the video editing, graphics and animation to help bring the program to life.

Featuring the Firm’s Labor & Employment department, the program provides insights on several significant topics including:
· FMLA & ADA Issues Regarding COVID-19 Long Haulers
· Hot-Button Trends in the Employment Litigation Lifecycle
· Important Employee Benefits Updates
· Tips for a Successful Employer Equity and Justice Initiative
· Employer Legal Requirements During Hurricane Season
· Predictions from Young Lawyers About the Future Workforce

The program also features an invaluable discussion with U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) Commissioner, Keith Sonderling, who provides the inside scoop about various issues from the agency’s perspective, as well as a special appearance from Bryan Norcross, Hurricane Specialist at WPLG, Channel 10 in Miami and author of ‘My Hurricane Andrew Story: The story behind the preparation, the terror, the resilience, and the renowned TV coverage of the Great Hurricane of 1992’. Also included are exclusive client interviews with six vastly different businesses across Florida, highlighting the lessons they learned throughout the pandemic.

Because program time was limited, the Firm plans to follow up with several in-depth webinars on various timely issues. Dates, topics and viewing information for the webinars will be released in the coming weeks.

The program is approved for HRCI (2 hours), SHRM (2 hours) & Florida Bar CLE (General: 2.5, Bias Elimination: .5, Labor & Employment Law: 2.5) credits.
