Solutions Law Press Publisher and author Cynthia Marcotte Stamer will moderate a program on “Workforce Termination & Severance Around The World” at the American Bar Association (“ABA”) International Law Section 2025 Annual Conference in New York.
Countries’ laws differ for individual and mass employment terminations. During the program, labor and employment lawyers Sandra McCandless, Donald C. Dowling, and Michael Green will examine countries’ laws on termination and severance rights, responsibilities and practices, examine common issues arising when employers terminate in country and ex-patriate workers outside their home countries, and share practical insights and experiences to budget, manage and defend worker separations to minimize legal, operational and liabilities and disruptions in the United States, India, China, Latin America and other regions of the World.
Focusing on the theme Adapting to Today’s International Legal Challenges: A New Era?” the ABA expects more than 600 participants from more than 30 countries around the world to attend the Conference, which runs from from April 28 -May 1, 2025. The Conference will feature a multitude of programs focusing on a wide range of timely international law and policy issues.
