The rules and regulations governing HR and Benefits are confusing and complex.  It is difficult for many HR professionals to understand how they all fit together as a coherent set of rules so that they can apply them in various situations.  They learn bits and pieces ad hoc as the need arises and that leaves a confusing tangle of seemingly contradictory rules.   This session is designed to provide a high-level overview of the basics of HR and benefits compliance.   This is designed to give attendees and understanding of the structure of the core HR and benefits rules, how they work together, and be able to apply them in specific situations.   Attendees will get a contextual overview and summary of core HR, leave and benefits requirements that all HR professionals should know.  The presenters will give the attendees a structure to bring some order and understanding to the seemingly arbitrary rules associated with HR and Benefits Compliance.   Just knowing the internal structure and logic of individual rules and regulations help to broaden and clarify the rules when applying them to specific instances.
