RACC Membership Meeting Lunch--"Keeping in Compliance with New, Updated State and Federal Employment Laws
2025-10-20 11:45 - 13:00 | Douglas County Fairgrounds
There have been noteworthy changes in 2025, with more to come 2026, to both federal and state employment/labor laws. Oregon employers face new regulations regarding leave, pay equity and hiring practices, with penalties for non-compliance growing stricter. These updates affect our local employers, from rules about internal investigations and age discrimination to new liability mandates for contractors. Employers should attend the Roseburg Area Chamber’s October 20 membership meeting lunch for important information about keeping in compliance with new and updated state and federal laws.
Presenting at the October membership lunch event will be Sean Ray, a partner with Barran Liebman, LLP. Barran Liebman is an employment, labor and benefits law firm in Oregon. Mr. Ray specializes in representing management in complex employment matters and high stakes litigation. He defends employers against discrimination complaints, sexual harassment lawsuits, and retaliation claims, wage and hour claims, and represents employers in state and district court, as well as before Oregon’s Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI). He regularly presents to chambers of commerce and other business organizations around the state on employment law and labor matters.
Chamber membership lunch meetings are held at the Douglas County Fairgrounds Complex in the Community Conference Hall from 11:45 am to 1 pm. The lunch buffet opens at 11:45. Advanced ticket purchase is required to attend. Online ticket sales only; tickets are not available at the door. The deadline to purchase your tickets is Wednesday, October 15.
The chamber’s October membership meeting lunch program is generously supported and sponsored by Evergreen Family Medicine.
