A Proclamation on

National Forest Products Week, 2022

From the White House:

During National Forest Products Week, we give thanks for the beauty of our forests and the bounty they provide: from the lumber in our homes and the paper we print to the medicines we take, the water we drink, and the air we breathe. We recommit this week to sustainable stewardship and management of our forests — not only preserving our forests’ splendor for recreation or sacred Tribal ceremonies but also for safeguarding key economic resources, supporting millions of jobs, and helping to ease the climate crisis.

Webinar - Love is a Battlefield: The Intersection of Workplace Romance and Sexual Harassment

From SLMA’s Employment Counsel at Wimberly, Lawson, Steckel, Schneider & Stine, PC.:

When: Friday, November 4th, 2022

12:00 PM to 12:45 PM EDT

An employer cannot stop employees from developing romantic relationships at work, but it can manage those relationships so that they do not turn into sexual harassment claims. 

In this Webinar, we will discuss the types of written policies and procedures a company can implement to prevent legal claims and minimize unnecessary distractions in the workplace. Because hell hath no fury like a woman—or man—scorned by a workplace romance.
