Discipline and Termination
The issues of discipline and termination are rife with questions of fairness and legality and generally make supervisors uncomfortable. Clear standards need to be set for all employees, and each employee, whether the best or the most problematic, must be held to the same standard or the company risks facing legal issues. The best way to accomplish this task is to make sure that your organization’s management is adequately trained to discipline employees properly and fairly and well versed in the laws regarding termination. This course will provide tips on how to discipline effectively, information on “at-will employment,” and a discussion of some of the legal issues regarding termination.
