We are proud to present to you the February 2018 issue of the Dentons' Global Employment Lawyer.  In this edition, we feature articles from six different countries—Canada, China, Costa Rica, the Netherlands, Poland and the US. Please let us know what you think of the articles. We welcome suggestions for how we can improve our content. As always, we thank you for your readership and look forward to your comments and suggestions.

Introducing a New Global Employment Update Product: Employment Law Insights and Solutions (ELIS)

In listening to our multi-national clients over the last few years, it has become clear to us that many of our readers would value a global employment law update product that regularly and succinctly identifies important changes in the law and, where appropriate, offers practice tips and solutions. As a result, we have created a new product:  Employment Law Insights and Solutions (ELIS). 

ELIS is an additional resource which can be customized to meet the particular needs of your business. The goal of ELIS is simple—to keep you informed of the latest developments in employment law so you can better manage the risks and opportunities arising from the ever-changing employment law landscape. Unlike the Global Employment Lawyer, ELIS contains short 3-4 sentence "alerts" rather than fully developed articles. What's more, ELIS can be tailored to each Dentons client to cover only those countries or issues of interest to the client.

In the special first edition of ELIS, which was released in September 2017, we identified some of the most important legislative developments and court decisions in the employment arena from the first half of 2017. A copy of that publication can be accessed here.

Tailoring ELIS for your business

ELIS can be tailored for each subscriber and formatted to enable the subscriber to share the key information and action items with its legal, HR, and business teams world-wide. ELIS can be provided by email or through secure online access.

What to expect of ELIS in 2018

Production of the next ELIS Special Edition (2017 Year-in-Review) is already underway, with the intention of releasing it in just a few short weeks. The issue will feature a look back at the top employment law stories of 2017 and what's ahead for 2018.

If you would like to learn more about how ELIS can help you and your business stay ahead of the compliance curve, please feel free to contact me at brian.cousin@dentons.com or any member of the Dentons team.
