Bad Employees Don’t Get Fired, They Fire Themselves

Presented By Attorneys: Geoff Lacy and Jodi Arndt Labs

Tundra Lodge

7:30am – 10:00am

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

Nothing strikes fear in the hearts of human resources professionals more than issues of discipline and discharge. The myriad of tripwires in these circumstances (discrimination, harassment, FMLA, ADA, etc.) is discussed in many programs, but what is often given short shrift is the significance of sound, consistent, and objective processes that both improve employee relations and protect against employment practices liability. This program will focus on sound practices and their application in real world circumstances so that when it comes to it, no termination should come as a surprise.
