Employment Law for Managers SeminarA Productivity-Based Approach to Legal Compliance4-hour Class
Instructor: Jonathan Driggs, Attorney at Law |

Target audience: All supervisors, managers, executives, and human resource personnel.
Supervisors, managers and executives have the most day-to-day interaction with employees, yet they usually know the least about employment laws. This results in a tremendous amount of your company’s legal liability in the hands of the uninformed. The best way to reduce a company’s liability risk is to get the information in the hands of those who need it the most: supervisors, managers and executives.
The Employment Law for Managers Seminar (ELMS) is especially designed to help non-H.R. managers know how to comply with the law while still meeting business objectives.
Some of the legal issues covered by ELMS are:
- How to conduct effective job interviews that are legally compliant
- How to avoid creating appearances of discrimination while managing employees (e.g. avoiding discrimination claims when making decisions related to performance, compensation, job assignments, promotions, etc.)
- How to prevent and/or respond to harassment complaints (sexual, sexist, racist, religious, etc.)
- How to manage high-risk and high-maintenance employees in an effective and legal manner
- How to discipline and/or terminate a problem employee in a fair and legal manner
- How to accommodate disabled employees under the Americans with Disabilities Act while ensuring satisfactory job performance
- How to manage employees who are taking leave under the Family & Medical Leave Act
- How to comply with wage and hour laws (overtime, etc.) … and much more!
