Labor Law Clinics are educational seminars focusing on topics chosen by local employers, such as the basics of Wisconsin's Fair Employment Law, workplace harassment, deciding eligibility for unemployment benefits, and understanding the principles of Wisconsin's worker’s compensation law.

Clinic Topics

Presentations provide an initial orientation to the topic. Speakers are “hands-on” experts working within the program area and are available to respond to a wide range of questions about their programs. Extensive resource materials such as employer handbooks, brochures and other legal references are available free of charge.

Registration for the clinic is required and there is a $77 per person fee. A registration form is available from the DWD web site Labor Law page. To receive notification of future clinic dates, an email subscription service is available through the web site.
