Description of Conference: This webinar will show how HR managers and employment decision makers can proactively avoid being pulled or influenced into making discriminatory employment decisions, that can prove costly for the company.
Why Should You Attend:
The Supreme Court recently issued the decision of Staub v. Proctor Hospital, that rightfully has employers concerned. The ruling makes it possible for a corporation to be held liable for discriminatory conduct of a manger – even when the company was not aware of the conduct. The decision is far reaching and makes training of those charged with the ability to discipline employees (even without the right to hire and fire) all the more important.
Areas Covered in the Seminar:
- What happened in Staub v. Proctor Hospital mean for employers?
- What is Staub v. Proctor Hospital a danger to employers?
- What does “cat's paw” mean anyway?
- Understanding other cases where employers have been held liable under the “cat's paw” theory.
- Understanding when/why you might need to conduct independent investigations into written warnings or performance appraisals.
- Why training is all the more important with regard to individuals who have the authority to discipline or conduct performance appraisals.
- How to structure an internal complaint procedure and why it is necessary.
