Canadian HR Reporter will host a webinar entitled “Your Fingertips: How Workplace Laws Impact Biometrics” on August 19 from 12 – 1 p.m. EST.

The webinar, which costs $69.00, is intended to help those employers who are considering implementing biometrics identify ways in which biometric technology can improve their legal compliance with employment standards legislation without violating individual privacy and human rights.

The webinar will cover numerous topics including the latest biometric systems and how businesses are using them, the business case for biometrics, how biometrics can help a workplace achieve and maintain compliance with employment standards obligations, the limits of privacy rights and human rights, and best practices for workplace biometrics.

The webinar will be presented by Andrew Ebejer, an attorney for Sherrard Kuzz LLP and Jeff Crews, president of Actual ID.
