Revised Compendiums Now Available

As a membership benefit, ARSA members receive the Association’s newsletter, the hotline each month. To make it easier and faster to dig up past articles, ARSA has created “compendiums” of the hotline’s most popular columns, including—

  • Legal Briefs (1994-2011). Own over 17 years of compliance knowledge in this revised compilation, which incorporates articles published since the column’s inception. This goldmine of compliance knowledge answers questions such as: What steps must I take during voluntary disclosure? What should we do when we receive an un-marked part? What requirements must a repair station comply with prior to shipping hazardous materials?
  • Employment Law (2004-2011). These articles, written by guest author and employment law attorney Jonathan Yarbrough, address and give practical solutions for issues surrounding whistleblowers, employee lawsuits, unemployment claims, drug problem disclosures, and employee recordkeeping requirements. This compilation is an update to the previous release, which included articles published through 2007.
  • Export Compliance (2005-2010). This compilation, written by guest author Jack Brodbeck, assists repair station personnel in understanding and complying with import and export regulations. Articles cover applicable law, available resources, a “best practices” kit, and much more. It’s a must read for personnel at companies that export inventory or expertise. This compilation revises the prior version that included articles through 2007.
  • Intellectual Property (2007-2011). NEW! ARSA’s newest compendium, written by guest author and IP attorney Al Givray, provides valuable information on intellectual assets, patents, copyrights and trademarks and practical solutions to problems surrounding customer licenses, trade secrets and inventor knowledge.

The updated Compendiums are available for purchase.
