Happy Friday! September has been a whirlwind! First, with the October 9th deadline quickly approaching, I’ve conducted countless Sexual Harassment Prevention presentations (NY employers, remember the October 9th deadline!). Then, in addition to I-9 Palooza!, I spent three days at the NY State SHRM Annual Conference in Albany, where I had the pleasure to present on both the US Supreme …
Happy Friday! Wow, what a great week. I spent three days in Cleveland, OH, at a conference aptly named I-9 Palooza! That’s right. Three days filled with all things I-9 and E-Verify! Although nothing could match the excitement of I-9 Palooza, this week’s Fridays with Frank is still pretty cool. Did You Just Call Me A Dummy? No! However, LawLogix …
Happy Friday the 13th! If you’re like me, you can’t help laughing when you walk into an elevator and notice there’s no button for the 13th floor. (Spoiler Alert!

Happy Friday! As my time away with family winds down, I’ve been thinking about the importance of staying connected. Not just with the family and friends I call or text daily, but with other friends I truly value. So, I’ve been making a conscious effort to reach out to one or two of those special people each day, and it’s …
Happy Friday! I’m on vacation (or as close as I ever get to actually taking time off) with my family, so this week I’m going to share links to a few of the great articles I’ve been reading. Is a New FLSA Overtime Rule Finally in the Homestretch? Ok, I didn’t read this first article, I wrote it. For many …
Welcome to HR Compliance Notebook! The HR Compliance Experts team is excited to launch our blog, HR Compliance Notebook, with something we’re calling Fridays with Frank. In my Fridays with Frank posts, I’ll share news and updates regarding state and federal legislation, regulatory information, links to employment-related articles, and maybe even a snarky comment or two. I’d like …
