Employment law is constantly evolving, and one mistake can expose a business to costly litigation.

In this episode of The SCV Law & Life Podcast, host Mason Rashtian sits down with Charles Krugel, a labor and employment attorney with more than 30 years of experience representing employers in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors.

Together they discuss the legal issues every business owner should understand, including:

• Hiring employees the right way
• Creating effective job descriptions
• Employee discipline and termination
• Wage and hour claims
• Harassment and discrimination lawsuits
• Workplace investigations
• AI's impact on the legal profession
• Remote work and employment law
• Federal vs. state court litigation
• Practical strategies to reduce legal risk before problems arise

Charles also shares insights from three decades of representing employers, discusses current workplace trends, and explains why proactive legal planning is almost always less expensive than defending a lawsuit.

Whether you're a business owner, HR professional, manager, attorney, or simply interested in employment law, this episode provides practical advice you can put to work immediately.
