FIRST ANNUAL LHM HR CONFERENCE HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGERS GATHER TO EDUCATE, SHARE AND LEARN Gloria Chamberland, director of benefits for the LHM Management Corporation. On August 25-27, 2014, the Larry H. Miller Group of Companies hosted its first-ever HR Conference. The conference gathered HR managers and staff from each of the LHM business entities to the corporate offices in Sandy, Utah. The intent of the conference is to ensure HR representatives are up to speed with the ever changing employment laws and how to stay in compliance with state and federal regulations. The conference also provides an opportunity for the HR representatives from different LHM locations to get to know one another. The conference covered such topics as LHM benefits, employment law updates, how to conduct workplace investigations, compliance with Fair Labor Standards Act, the correlation with short-term disability/FMLA/Worker’s Compensation, unemployment and employee onboarding. More than 70 human resource professionals from the Group attended the conference which, going forward, will be held annually. WS LHM legal counsel, Sarah Starkey, reviews employment and labor laws with the group of HR professionals.
