Epic Systems Corp. v. Lewis: The U.S. Supreme Court’s Approval of Class Action Waivers and What It Means for Employers Everywhere

June 5, 2018

In Epic Systems Corp. v. Lewis, the United States Supreme Court held that employers may require employees to sign arbitration agreements which include a class action waiver. This decision, which many workers’ rights advocates all across the country view as controversial, has the potential to reduce drastically the ability of employees to file class or collective actions regarding claims which arise during their employment. In this webinar, you will learn the relatively recent history of the debate over these class action waivers, the rationale for the Supreme Court’s decision, and what it means for your business moving forward.
