At each annual meeting we pride ourselves on bringing innovative speakers leading the industry in recruiting, compliance, and leadership with tracks specific to each area of concentration. As an HR professional, compliance likely plays a large role in your daily operations (and is likely your greatest cause of work-related stress). We are excited to give you a sneak peek at the compliance track for the DirectEmployers 2013 Annual Meeting & Conference (DEAM13), taking place October 21-24th in San Diego, California.
