Collaborate with legal and HR leadership on training programs related to compliance, performance management, anti-harassment, and workplace conduct.
Monitor new legislation, regulations, and case law impacting employment-related issues and risk mitigation strategies.
Perform other related duties as assigned.
Provide training for staff on legal procedures, labor law and other subjects.
Draft appropriate contract language.
Provide operational continuity in the absence of the Director of Human Resources, ensuring proper supervision of HR staff, workflow direction, and continuity of investigations.
Assist in assembling and analyzing records for review or appeal, and coordinate as needed on matters involving legal strategy, litigation, administrative claims, or other proceedings requiring formal attorney involvement.

Required Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities to:

Ability to exercise delegated management judgment in sensitive labor and employment matters, maintain confidentiality, direct workflow and investigations as assigned, and provide sound managerial support in the absence of the Director of Human Resources.
