HRMG 455 - HR Employment Law


Credits: Three (3)
This course focuses on employment law regulations and how to plan and reduce legal exposure in the area of human resources. Employment laws are extensive and vary based on many factors, including the size of the organization, its location, and the type of industry in which it operates. The laws that apply to the majority of employers are discussed, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), including how to apply these laws to persons, departments, occupations, and organizations. The course will emphasize experiential learning as students explore potential problems and solutions through a variety of case studies.
