WIRTW #141 (the creepy-crawly edition)


It all started with a short press release from the National Pest Management Association, which announced the results of the 2010 Comprehensive Global Bed Bug Study. Now the press is all over this bed bug story (The Bed Bug Hub: One-Stop Shop for Bed Bug Information for a collection of links), and people everywhere are itching. Once limited to hotels, the little buggers are even showing up in downtown offices, which poses its own unique set of problems for employers (More offices see bedbug infestations). I’m phantom-scratching myself as I write this. Yick!

Anyhow, here’s the rest of what I read this week:

Social Media & Technology

Wage & Hour

Discrimination

Litigation

Employee Relations

Trade Secrets and Competition
