Learn how to identify employee behaviors that can lead to lawsuits if not properly addressed.
Many employers find themselves receiving the service of a lawsuit and begin to panic about how much it will cost to defend against the lawsuit, how much time employees will spend dealing with the lawsuit, and wondering how they wound up getting sued in the first place. This presentation will help identify employee behaviors that can lead to lawsuits if not properly addressed. In hindsight, it may be easy to identify how a lawsuit materialized, but proactive identification and management of certain employee behaviors can significantly mitigate legal risks. This workshop will help employers identify concerning employee behaviors, understand why those behaviors are concerning, and learn how to apply strategies that minimize legal risks.
