AHI's Management Training Series:
Effective Employee Discipline & Termination Strategies For Supervisors
Wednesday, November 11, 2009
1:00 - 2:00 PM (Eastern)
Background
Every workplace has employees who break the rules. What's even worse is that when situations involving discipline or termination is handled poorly by one of your supervisors, it can lead to serious legal problems for you and your organization.
Just ask the company that had to pay $1.57 million to a former manager who claimed he was unlawfully disciplined and constructively discharged in retaliation for complaining about what he perceived to be discriminatory employment practices.
Training is the key to establishing and maintaining proper discipline techniques in your workplace and avoiding lawsuits like this. Your managers and supervisors need to understand how to properly investigate, document, and discuss situations involving employee misconduct in order to prevent potential discrimination or retaliation charges. In addition, they need to know how to properly handle employee terminations, whether due to misconduct or poor performance.

- To make your organization's discipline and termination practices more effective and legally defensible. This learning session is a great way to train your supervisors on how to enforce discipline that holds employees accountable for meeting established expectations and prevents potential discrimination and retaliation lawsuits.
