| Description: |
No one really enjoys sitting down and document employment issues. But talk to any labor and employment attorney, and they’ll tell you that one of the keys to being able to defend litigation rests in sound documentation practices. Document, document, document—they all say it, but what does it really mean?
Join us for an in-depth 90-minute interactive webinar all about how to draft employment documentation that gets your point across while minimizing your organization’s legal liabilities.
Our expert – a seasoned labor and employment attorney – will explain why you should always make time to document document issues related to employees’ performance, attendance, or bad attitude. She’ll provide you with expert insights so you can draft clear, concise, and ironclad documentation that will stand up before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or a court.
You’ll learn:- The key components that all good progressive-discipline documents, including warnings, disciplinary notices, or termination letters, share
- The practices you should put in place so your employment documentation is consistent and fair
- How to accurately convey employment objectives, expectations, and policy violations, as well as the consequences of not improving on performance issues
- Language to use so employees are actually being held accountable for improving their own performance or conduct
- How to document attendance issues following the expiration of workers’ protected leave under federal leave laws
- How to handle a situation where there may be a medical or psychological reason behind a worker’s performance or conduct-related issues so you don’t violate the ADA
- The nightmare scenarios that have resulted from poor documentation practices for countless employers and how to avoid making those mistakes

| About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts: |
Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.
The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form a training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!
And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.
Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions. |
