Managing Discipline: Your Legal Responsibilities

For most managers, performance evaluations, annual reviews and disciplinary actions are somewhat of a nuisance. However, the cost of avoiding these necessary parts of the job may have significant consequences. Failing to fulfill these obligations may result in problems for you, and not addressing disciplinary problems might result in problems for your entire team. Productivity may decline, and in the worst case, a lawsuit may be filed. However, the process for any employee review, whether positive or negative, is the same. Learn the four steps of an employee review, as well as how to implement them correctly, through the information presented in this On Demand video training.

To keep employee evaluations fair and balanced for all those involved, you must follow the four steps set forth in this training video. You must prepare for the evaluation, meet the employee, document the meeting, and follow up with the employee; this course instructs you on the details concerning each step. These steps are crucial for every evaluation, as you would not want to find yourself in the middle of a lawsuit simply because you evaluated someone improperly or failed to record the meeting itself.

Learn and understand these four points through the materials here, thereby becoming a fair evaluator respected by your employees.
