2016 - Webinar On How to Document Employee Discussions and Why that is Important

Overview:
Documentation is both the bane and the blessing for HR. It is difficult to get people to do it, but it is preferred by attorneys and believed by judges and juries.
Why should you attend: Annually hundreds of thousands of lawsuits and hearings occur across the country. Each of these is "legal" proceeding which require evidence of events that actually occurred. Documentation is what wins, or in some cases loses, these lawsuits and hearings. The result of lack of documentation results in the loss of millions of dollars each year that might be prevented by a good documentation program.
Areas Covered in the Session:
How and why documentation is good
Meets the legal requirements of Federal statutes
Provides a record of interactions with employees in order to provide better recall of what was said and done

Provides the legal documentation needed to defend the company in a lawsuit
We will talk about how documentation will get you in trouble
