Supervisors and managers are expected to handle the basics of employment law, yet few receive practical training on it. This 90-minute employment law basics for supervisors webinar covers what you need to know to avoid common legal and practical pitfalls.
On hiring, you'll look at rising EEOC claims for retaliation, race and sex, behavioral interviewing dos and don'ts, and Form I-9 expiration dates. You'll also review key points on FLSA exempt categories and the duties test.
The session then covers the overlap of FMLA, ADA and workers' compensation, and discipline and termination practices, including unemployment factors of knowledge, culpability and control, employment verification and final paychecks. It is not legal advice, so involve your counsel for specific situations.
