If you're an employee, this is a must-listen episode! We should all know more about our employee rights, so why not learn it straight from two powerhouse lawyers who help clients navigate the complex world of employment contracts, salary and severance negotiation, and standing up for themselves in the workplace every day? That's why I've invited David Whitten and Daniel Lublin, founding partners of Whitten & Lublin Employment Lawyers, to come on the podcast to share their years of experience in employment law.
In this episode, we discuss topics such as the first thing you should do when you receive a job offer, what red flags you should be aware of in employment contracts, how to negotiate your pay and other benefits before signing on the dotted line, what your rights are in the workplace once you're hired, how to ask for accommodations if you have a disability, and how to fight for what you're owed if you get terminated.
