Litigation Risk Management Series: International Employee Benefits -- Identifying and Avoiding Unintended Consequences

Wednesday, November 09 06:00 AM BST to 06:00 AM BST

BNA presents its Litigation Risk Management Series with a focus on "International Employee Benefits -- Identifying and Avoiding Unintended Consequences."

Tuesday, November 08, 20111:00 - 2:30 p.m. ET

The globalization of business seems to bring regular, unwelcome surprises when it comes to the handling of employees outside the United States. It is somewhat natural to expect that compliance with U.S. law will protect against material international risks, but practical experience tells a scarier story. This presentation will alert listeners to the worst risks and the best solutions. Our panel will get "into the weeds" in addressing the employment, tax, and administrative risks associated with:

• Making equity awards globally• "Exporting" plan provisions involving non-competition and other business protections• Reserving clawback rights, changing benefit plans, and deferring payouts for an international workforce.• Proliferating privacy laws and their impact on benefit plan administration.• Tripping into conflicts of laws between jurisdictions.
