The Employer Toolkit: The Six Best Ways to Avoid Employee Lawsuits
This workshop is designed to provide executives and managers with a six-step, workable plan through which to minimize the most frequent sources of employee claims, including sexual harassment; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Family and Medical Leave Act; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; the Fair Labor Standards Act; and race, gender and nationality discrimination claims. The program will lay the groundwork for other, more focused programs (some of which appear below) that may be required, depending on the company’s particular circumstances.
How to Prevent Sexual Harassment Lawsuits: The New, and Much More Difficult, Rules of the Game
The U.S. Supreme Court has recently, and drastically, changed the "rules of the game" regarding sexual harassment. Executives and managers must take a much more pro-active (within defined limits) role in the prevention of and response to such claims, or the liabilities can be dramatic. This session explains the requirements and the practical ways by which to satisfy them.
The Hiring and Promotion Process: The Traps and Minefields of Everyday Management
Hiring and retaining the right person is a difficult enough task. Managing the process can make it unbearable. What can you say and not say during the employment interview? What background information can you request and use (criminal history; credit checks; medical history). How do you legally lock in key talent? On what basis can you promote, demote and assign jobs, in the face of potential discrimination, disability and similar claims? How do you avoid Equal Pay Act issues and still have a meaningful compensation program? These and many more real-world issues are addressed in this session.
Enough is Enough!! An Employer’s Guide to Terminating the Problem Employee
Using common sense, a responsible manager would remove a problem employee from the work place as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, in the new world of employment law, common sense will create huge liabilities. Caution, preparation and documentation are key to a successful termination. We will show you how what preliminary steps need to be taken and how to document the need for employee discipline and termination so you can prove you did the right thing.
