With his confirmation nearly official, on our first episode of our special series Employers and the New Administration, we ask, “Who exactly is Labor Secretary nominee Marty Walsh, and what does his appointment mean for employers?” Walsh is coming off two terms as mayor of Boston, and he made his mark before that as a popular labor leader and community activist. His leadership could indicate a major shift at the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). The episode features guest Gregory Keating, a Member of the Firm in Epstein Becker Green's Boston office, who has testified before the U.S. Senate on creating effective compliance programs and who served for four years on the DOL’s Whistleblower Protection Advisory Committee. Attorney David Garland leads the conversation. Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw197.
