Remember Lily Ledbetter?....

Since his inauguration, President Obama's administration has launched sweeping changes in our H/R world.  2012 will be no different, with a myriad of landmark changes in the works.

Brenda Yamagata is an H/R professional with more than 35 years experience tracking, interpreting and ensuring that Yamagata and Associates' client companies use Federal, State and local mandates to their advantage.

She'll join us at the January meeting by giving us five easy ways to address proposed rules that will affect the way we meet H/R challenges in 2012.
