Vorys Launches ‘Vorys at Work’ Podcast Featuring Practical Employment Law Tips for Employers

Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP today announced the launch of the firm’s first podcast “Vorys at Work.” The podcast, hosted by Houston Partner Jackie Ford, will feature Vorys lawyers, clients and other guests discussing current issues in employment law and creative approaches to business-savvy compliance. 

“It’s called Vorys at Work both because it’s about employment law and because it’s about how we work at Vorys,” said Ford. “We take a practical, real-world approach to helping clients solve problems. We like to work hard, we like to work smart, and we like to work as a team. And we like to help our clients do the same,” said Ford. “This podcast will feature short episodes on timely and important issues employers should be thinking about. It will also feature practical takeaways for our listeners.” 

The first three episodes of the podcast are available now for listeners. The first episode covers what Ford calls “MeToo backlash” and highlights the importance of workplace training. In the second episode, Ford talks with Vorys Partner Dave Cook about the changes in immigration law/enforcement under the Trump administration and key things employers need to keep in mind. In the third episode, Ford and Vorys attorney Mike Griffaton go into the weeds to discuss medical and recreational marijuana laws across the U.S. Vorys at Work episodes can be found here. They can also be found on SoundCloud and Apple Podcasts. New episodes will be added each month.
