Hiring, Managing, and Separating from Employees

Gaining a deep understanding of the dozens of laws and hundreds of regulations that apply to the workplace isn't necessary for most managers or human resource professionals. That said, knowing the most important ones can be a boon to your career and help you maintain your company's reputation. This course is focused on giving you the framework of the law from hiring to letting employees go, so you know how to avoid potential issues that could land you—and your organization—in trouble. Learn how to properly navigate the hiring process—from writing job descriptions to asking appropriate interview questions—as well as how to define company policies and procedures in an employee handbook, and manage personnel files. In addition, learn about day-to-day laws that managers should be familiar with, and how to handle employee discipline and documentation.
