The Seattle Paid Sick and Safe Time ordinance takes effect on September 1, 2012. Employers must provide Seattle workers with paid "sick and safe" time off – i.e., accrued, job-protected leave. Is your organization prepared?

Joint Foster Pepper attorneys and special guests on August 8, 2012 for a complimentary seminar covering the new ordinance. This presentation will provide practical guidance to Washington employers on compliance with the new leave requirements, including:

• Legal requirements of the ordinance
• Coverage and scope of the ordinance, including application to occasional Seattle employees
• Hours tracking and leave requests
• Accrual and use of paid time off
• Modifications to existing paid leave programs
• Notice and posting requirements
• Practical guidance for employer implementation

In addition to experienced Foster Pepper attorneys, our presenters will include a special guest speaker from the City of Seattle to answer your questions.

Seating is limited, so please register early.
