Partner Dan Forman to Speak from Oct. 31 to Nov. 2 at the 17th Annual Advanced Employment Issues Symposium
Partner Dan M. Forman will present a Termination Workshop at the 17th Annual Advanced Employment Issues Symposium. The Symposium is scheduled from October 31-November 2, 2012, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Advanced Employment Issues Symposium is widely recognized as the leading employment law conference for forward-thinking Human Resources professionals, executives, and in-house counsel.
Below is a summary of the Termination Workshop Dan M. Forman will present:
Terminations pose a variety of challenges for HR, including lost productivity, decreased morale, the time and effort involved in finding replacements…not to mention an increased risk of lawsuits. Our tactical workshop will help you avoid the most common legal landmines and conduct terminations to minimize hard feelings and lawsuit risks. You’ll learn:
• Why “at will” doesn’t protect you – and the dangers of thinking it does
• Specific things in your employee handbook that could leave you wide open for a lawsuit
• How to ensure a highly protective paper trail
• What to do about managers who want to fire employees “right now”
• How to conduct a thorough fact investigation before pulling the termination trigger
• What to say – and what never to say – in a termination meeting
• How to respond to anger, threats, and tears
• What to do if a departing employee announces plans to sue you
