Employment Law Basics with Farm Commons
December 5, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Join us for a webinar with Farm Commons
Farm employment law feels intimidating but with just a few key rules and operating principles, the farm or ranch business can navigate this potential minefield with confidence. This webinar will teach the fundamentals of farm employment law including classifying workers and the obligations of every farm employer. Folks will learn where they need to learn more and where they can sit back with confidence, no matter where they are in their farming journey. Led by staff from Farm Commons, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering farmers to solve their own business law challenges in a community of support. To access their robust library of farm law print guides, podcasts, video tutorials, checklists, and more, visit www.farmcommons.org.
