Thomas R. Bagby & Thomas M. Winn, III co-author Labor and Employment Law in Virginia, released through the Virginia Chamber of Commerce

(Richmond, VA – August 23, 2007) – The Virginia Chamber of Commerce has released Labor and Employment Law in Virginia: A Business Resource Guide for Employers. The Labor and Employment Law in Virginia takes a practical approach to the legal issues involved in understanding and implementing employment policies. The manual provides the information employers need to comply with Virginia and federal laws.

“With employment laws in an almost constant state of change, employers must stay informed and aware of their obligations, as well as their own rights under the law and the rights of their employees,” said Thomas Bagby, co-author of Labor and Employment Law and Chairman of Woods Rogers. “Employers must stay up to date on the latest legal developments to control and minimize the loss of time, negative publicity, legal fees, and costly verdicts that can be associated with employee claims.”

Hugh Keogh, President and CEO of the Virginia Chamber added, “The authors have expended considerable time in preparing the materials in an effort to make them as understandable as possible – you will find it all in this book, plus some issues you might be overlooking.” Labor and Employment Law in Virginia covers important workplace issues such as how to avoid and respond to claims of discrimination, dealing with union issues, compliance with complicated wage/hour and benefit regulations, employee health regulations, and a myriad of other issues. In addition to the 38 chapters of useful information, each guide also contains a detailed table of contents, informative topic headings within each chapter, and a thoroughly cross-referenced index. To place an order, call 888-225-6030.
