SSEK Law Firm partner Syahdan Z. Aziz will speak at the complimentary 2026 Employment Law Alliance (ELA) Year in Review: Asia Pacific (Mainland China, Hong Kong SAR, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia) webinar. The session is part of the ELA’s global series examining key labor and employment developments from 2025 and what to expect in 2026.
Syahdan also serves on the ELA Board of Directors and is the Asia Pacific Regional Chair.
The Asia-Pacific session will explore how governments across the region are modernizing labor and employment laws to address evolving workplace challenges. As worker protections expand, compliance standards tighten and new technologies are regulated, employers must adapt to significant statutory updates reshaping their obligations.
The discussion will cover heightened compliance and enforcement trends, evolving legal frameworks for special categories of workers, expanded whistleblower protections, updated working hour rules, and the changing landscape of non-compete regulations, including enforceability, restrictions, and penalties.
