Georgia’s employment laws aren’t so peachy for employers trying to stay out of court.
 Knowing federal law is no longer enough to protect your company in Georgia. State laws are compounded by cities and towns who also want to get in on the act and tell you how to manage your business.
Aggressive lawyers and greedy employees are quick to take advantage of any small slip you might make. And what’s worse, these lawyers are not only going after corporations, they’re targeting supervisors and HR professionals – and their bank accounts – personally.
- Georgia is serious about illegal immigration, and employers are on the front line. Georgia’s Security and Immigration Compliance Act is the strictest immigration law in the country. Employers who knowingly pay illegal aliens may have a surprise at tax time when the state disallows their deductions.
- Are you complying with Georgia’s Smokefree Air Act? The law restricts workplace smoking and limits where employers can permit smoking. Failure to comply could cloud your company’s future.
- Do your noncompete agreements fly under Georgia law? State law generally frowns on any restraints of trade. A noncompete agreement that is legal in other states may not be in Georgia.
Unlike federal lawsuits, the sky’s the limit on state-court damages. Plus, even if you win a lawsuit, legal fees could still run you $10,000 or more.
