Company Protection When an Employee Leaves or Is Terminated

Understand key issues that arise with an eye toward avoiding the pitfalls of potential legal claims.

Whether an employee's termination is voluntary or not, an employee's departure has practical and legal implications. This presentation will highlight the key issues that arise with an eye toward avoiding the pitfalls of potential legal claims, protecting the employer from unfair competition, and preserving the morale of the remaining workforce. It will cover the practical issues as well as the applicable federal, state, and local laws that are often implicated. With increased knowledge and experience in these areas, webinar participants will become more prepared to set up the legal infrastructure to minimize liability upon the conclusion of employment relationships.
