Presenter John F. Kuenstler is a partner in the Chicago office of Barnes & Thornburg LLP and a member of the Labor and Employment Department. Mr. Kuenstler dedicates his practice exclusively to the representation of employers in labor and employment and business matters. He counsels and represents a diverse client base on a national and regional basis in virtually all aspects of labor and employment law, including defense of wrongful discharge, discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, Title VII, ADA, ADEA, Section 1981, FMLA, FLSA, ERISA, USERRA, WARN, and OSHA claims in federal and state courts and administrative agencies, as well as collective and class actions.
Recent Illinois gun legislation means employers will shortly confront a new, potentially troublesome workplace issue: concealed firearms. We will discuss the new law and affirmative steps employers must take if they want their workplaces to remain gun-free.
