How Illinois Employers Can Win Misconduct and Voluntary Quit IDES Hearings

Presented by WS Attorneys --- Nancy Joerg & Tony Caruso

Join attorneys Nancy Joerg and Tony Caruso for an informative teleseminar about Illinois Department of Employment Security (IDES) unemployment insurance claims and hearings.

Some of the areas to help employers win are:

New pro-business legislation for misconduct definition to help employers!
Best strategies for employers who are protesting when misconduct or voluntary leave is an issue.
Little known (and very important) exceptions to voluntary leave.
How employers can best prepare for unemployment insurance hearings…and WIN!
When is it worthwhile for employers to protest hearing decisions?
Learning from recent (and surprising) misconduct and voluntary leave decisions.

Teleseminars offer an excellent opportunity to brief your entire staff with no lost travel time or expenses. And no special equipment is required to participate in the live interactive program - all you need is a standard telephone.
