CONFERENCE INFORMATION The Washington State Human Resources Council (WSHRC) is the official Washington State affiliate of the Society for Human Resource Management, the world’s largest association devoted to human resource management. The Washington State Employment Law & HR Conference is where key business decision makers, business owners, senior level officers, mid-level management and human resource professionals come to learn about important Washington State and Federal legislation and employment issues that will be impacting their business in the future. For 17 years, attendees from across Washington have gathered to learn and to discuss critical issues of concern for Washington employment & business. In these challenging times of economic volatility in Washington, WSHRC is dedicated to bringing the state’s business and HR professionals the most comprehensive and current content available from expert sources.
Our Conference brings acclaimed employment law attorneys, national speakers and SHRM experts to the podium delivering powerful and impactful presentations on ever changing employment laws and legislative issues, as well as the role of HR practitioners and business leaders in these unique times.
