Manage Risk and Master Audits—Register for the 2026 ASA Staffing Law & Compliance Conference

The focus of federal enforcement is changing and intensifying. Technology is moving faster than regulation. Fraud targeting staffing firms is getting more sophisticated. That’s why you need to be prepared for new legal and legislative realities. The ASA Staffing Law & Compliance Conference has been developed to help you stay ahead of compliance issues before they turn into audits, claims, or costly missteps.

Come to the Grand Hyatt in Washington, DC, May 7–8 for practical, staffing-specific guidance on topics such as federal and state enforcement trends, immigration and Form I-9 compliance, using artificial intelligence tools responsibly, protecting data and client relationships, and more. Visit staffinglawconference.net for registration information, and secure your spot today.
