ELS Managing Partner, Jamala S. McFadden, was thrilled to moderate a dynamic panel discussing workplace investigations at the National Bar Association’s Annual Labor and Employment Section Conference. Workplace investigations are a crucial topic for employers and practitioners navigating the complexities of today’s work environment.
Joined by esteemed panelists Paul E. Garrison, Esq., Mediator/Arbitrator, JAMs; Shawn S. McGruder, Senior Associate General Counsel, Johns Hopkins; Maurice Q. Robinson, Assistant Director of Workforce Diversity and EO Compliance for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey; and Janea J. Hawkins, Esq., Assistant General Counsel, Employment Law Freddie Mac, the discussion provided invaluable insights into executing effective and thorough investigations.
