Summary of Program
Most employers know that it is crucial to have well trained supervisors to help ensure that rank and file employees perform their jobs effectively and efficiently. However, many employers don’t realize how important it is that supervisors be trained to understand the many employment laws that govern the workplace. Untrained supervisors can take actions (or fail to take actions) that result in significant legal consequences for an employer. Come join the employment lawyers at Weintraub Tobin for a discussion of best practices for training supervisors and reducing the potential for liability.

Program Highlights

• An overview of employment laws that impact the workplace and common mistakes supervisors make when they don’t understand those laws.
• Tips for effective communication between supervisors and employees, including how to give constructive performance feedback.
• Common supervisor mistakes when hiring and firing.
• The importance of consistent, objective, and timely discipline.
• Preventing and responding to harassment and other Equal Employment Opportunity complaints.
• Documentations: The good, the bad and the ugly.

Summary of Program:

The regulations regarding California’s Mandatory Sexual Harassment Prevention Training for supervisors require that certain employers provide training to their supervisors every two years.

The Labor and Employment Group at Weintraub Tobin Chediak Coleman Grodin is offering a two hour in-person training session that will comply with all the requirements outlined in the regulations, including things like:

• an overview of sexual harassment laws;
• examples of conduct that constitute sexual harassment;
• lawful supervisory responses to complaints of harassment in the
workplace;
• strategies to prevent harassment in the workplace; and
• practical and inter-active hypotheticals and examples to help
illustrate what sexual harassment, discrimination, and retaliation
can look like.

If you are an employer with 50 or more employees, and have supervisors who have not yet been trained, this training is a must. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you comply with your continuing sexual harassment training obligations.

Summary of Program:
Exposure to retaliation claims in the workplace today is like
exposure to second-hand smoke in the workplace in the 1960s –
it’s everywhere but few people understand the danger.
The Labor and Employment Group at Weintraub Tobin is pleased
to offer this very important training session that will help business
owners, human resource professionals, and managers understand
the ins-and-outs of retaliation, whistleblowing, and wrongful
termination claims.
Program Highlights:

• Who is a “whistleblower” and under what law(s)?
• What type of conduct can constitute “retaliation” and underwhat law(s)?
• What constitutes “wrongful termination?”
• Did the employee quit or was [s]he “constructively terminated” (What does that mean?)
• Can an “at-will” employee be wrongfully terminated?
• Steps to avoid retaliation, whistleblowing, and wrongful termination claims: effective policies, training, anddocumentation.
