August Program Meeting
The Importance of Employment Law and Practices Training for Supervisors and Employees
Presented by W. Kirk Turner
Newton, O'Connor, Turner & Ketchum
Why is it so important to regularly and clearly provide legal training to your organization's supervisors and employees about your company's harassment, EEO, FMLA, ADA and other employment policies and practices? Come to the August program meeting and hear the critical legal and business reasons for training both supervisors and employees, the benefits of regularly conducting training, and the importance of clearly communicating to your employees and managers their legal responsibilities for understanding and complying with applicable employment laws and your organization's policies and procedures.
Kirk Turner of Newton, O'Connor, Turner & Ketchum, P.C., a national leader in labor law and employment practices training and one of TAHRA's favorite speakers each year, will make the case that providing supervisors and employees with regular employment practices training will go a long way toward reducing exposure to liability for employment-related claims while improving management competencies in these critical areas. You will not want to miss this fast-paced, interactive presentation.
In addition, immediately following the August Program Meeting, Kirk will conduct a two-hour training session for your managers and supervisors highlighting the biggest employment-related mistakes made by managers and supervisors and how to avoid them. Kirk will also provide interactive legal training to your leaders in the critical areas of compliance and effectively managing employee performance and behavior under the EEO laws, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). This is a great opportunity to expose leaders to the critical skills needed to effectively navigate the maze of employment laws to which employers are subject.
