Compliance alone may not be the answer; strategic HR is about the practical application of employment law principles to better, more effective business decision-making.
Find the sweet spot linking successful management of employees with legal compliance. This session blends employment practices and case law with humor to help you confront some of today's toughest workplace challenges with confidence. Merge legal concepts and common sense to convince management at all levels to initiate safe HR practices (and get out of the babysitting business).
Learning Objectives:
- Develop, influence and execute strategies for managing organizational change that balance the expectations of the organization, employees and the law.
- Gain a real-world understanding of applicable federal and state regulations, and the ability to audit your own business for risky practices.
- Learn the effects of company HR policy on such front-line practices as hiring, documentation, workplace behavior and performance management.
- Leave with sample policies that mitigate your legal risk.
