Basics of Employment Law for Non-HR Professionals

For: All People Leaders | 4 Hours

Law review isn’t just for law students.

Understanding the impact of employment laws when working with employees is both challenging and confusing. Most company policies are based on federal or state laws.

They will learn techniques to help control the interview and discover the hidden talents of applicants. 

Learning Objectives: 

Learn how the application of policies and employment laws within the workplace can reduce employee complaints, and protect your company from claims of discrimination or wrongful behavior

Examine wage and pay practices, FMLA examples, as well as other challenging workplace questions, to insure your actions are consistent with laws and policies

Examine the key functions and activities of employment including recruitment, interviewing and selection
