More than 400 people attended the "Spring Training" Labor & Employment and Employee Benefits Seminar on Wednesday, May 21st, at the Cox Business Services Convention Center in downtown Oklahoma City. The event was presented by McAfee & Taft and co-sponsored by PremierSource. It set a new attendance record for the seminar, which has continually grown in popularity with each event.

Attendees filled to capacity the opening session to listen to the Employment Law Update presented by Nathan Whatley, McAfee & Taft shareholder and leader of the firm's Labor & Employment Practice Group.

Afterward, there were nine breakout sessions that attendees could choose from, including sessions about arbitration agreements, FMLA and USERRA issues, monitoring employees in the workplace and on the Internet, planning of workforce reductions, tracking changes to immigration laws, reducing workers' compensation claims, attracting and retaining key employees and auditing retirement plan products and fees.

PremierSource president Teah Corley presented a session entitled "Team Employer vs. Team Underwriter." With co-presenters Susan Clarke and Jeff Marchino of Aetna, the session explored what every employer should know about the underwriting of their health plan.

On the heels of such a successful seminar, McAfee & Taft and PremierSource are already looking forward to its future events with Labor & Employment and Employee Benefits seminars planned in the fall for both Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
