    About the Presenter

    As an experienced Employment Attorney, Mr. Finerty regularly advises his clients on how labor and employment-related legislation and regulation may affect their businesses and assists clients in developing compliant policies and practices. He spends a considerable amount of time speaking to trade groups including the Wisconsin Healthcare Human Resources Association (WisHHRA), various TEC Groups, the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce (MMAC), the Wauwatosa Chamber of Commerce, the Wisconsin Association of Textile Services (WATS), the Wisconsin Fabricare Institute (WFI), the Metro Milwaukee and Fox Valley SHRM chapters, and other trade associations. The labor law topics range from how to effectively dispute unemployment insurance claims and how to defend discrimination claims in the ERD and EEOC to developments in labor and employment law; social media and its effect on the workplace; workplace bullying and what to do about it; and determining reasonable suspicion for drug and alcohol testing and structuring effective drug testing programs. Mr. Finerty has led other compliance discussion relating changes in Wisconsin and local law, such as Wisconsin's Concealed Carry law and the City of Milwaukee Paid Sick Leave Ordinance, among others.
