    Many costly employment law and human resources issues are caused by a company’s managers.   This includes them both being a part of the problem and/or by not being a necessary part of the solution. While managers are often very skilled in the business/production part they are managing, the majority are not trained with how to properly communicate with employees and HR on Human Resources issues.

    The presentation includes interactive and collaborative peer-to-peer breakout rooms, trained Broadway actors doing vignettes of real work scenarios, and other fun ways of approaching this tough, but necessary, topic to protect businesses.

    In this presentation, attendees will learn:

    • How and why your managers are exposing your company to employment lawsuits. Areas discussed include discrimination, leave, reasonable accommodation, and discriminatory harassment.
    • How to teach managers how to have better communication with both HR and employees in real-time.
    • How to approach documenting employee performance and discipline for back-up to legal actions and to also increase employee production.
    • The most important practices and tips to immediately put in place for their company.
