MEET ONE OF OUR CONFERENCE PRESENTERS:
|
Erik Laiho
Labor Law Attorney & Partner |
Fisher Phillips
Topic: Labor Law Fundamentals & Recent Trends
|
Erik Laihoadvises a range of private and public sector employers in optimizing their labor relations functions. He has extensive experience helping employers deal with union organizing campaigns, respond to unlawful labor practice charges, and in labor arbitrations stemming from collective bargaining agreements.
Erik appreciates that, in many instances, intentional, strategic actions can prevent issues before they arise. He knows that the legal landscape around labor relations is more fluid than other aspects of the law, and that each client engagement is unique. Erik thrives in environments where clients’ particular business objectives can be used to design and deploy creative solutions that satisfy both management and employees.
When preventative measures are not enough, Erik’s understanding of the interplay between leave laws, employee benefits, bargaining, discipline, discharge, and litigation creates leverage that powers successful outcomes. He has more than 13 years of experience in state and federal courts, arbitrations, administrative agency proceedings and before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). Read More

Thanks to Chief Kathy McAlpine’s offer to allow their agency’s PIO to edit the Fall Conference videos, we are in the process of making them available to all of our Member Agencies. Kelsey Anderson (Tigard’s PIO) has finished editing three of the videos and is on her way to editing the last two. We didn’t want to delay getting these to you asap, so please go to our Training Center to access the following presentations:
- Mitigating Potential Law Enforcement Risks: An Examination of the Top Trending Claims Against Police - Dan Brown
- Raising the Standard for Resiliency - Laura G. Hanson
- Police Resiliency & Critical Incident Mindset - Joshua Bitsko
While there, take a moment to peruse the other training offerings. There’s a wealth of information on this platform, and we hope all our members will take full advantage of them. Did you know that as a Member Agency you have the ability to share the video link and the password to all those in your agency, regardless of whether they are an OACP member themselves? To navigate there, log in to the Members Only area > Training (upper ribbon right side).
