Description

Employee terminations are never easy, but when done incorrectly they can become your worst nightmare. Read the scenario outlined in the next paragraph and think through what course of action you would take.

An employee, who is a minority, female, age 40+, and disabled, has been exhibiting poor performance for many years. Her performance evaluations describe her as an “excellent” employee. There is a star candidate to take her place and this candidate is considering an offer from another company.

How would you react? Many employers and Human Resources professionals would be paralyzed by such a scenario because of the very real risk that they'll get sued. What is the solution?

This course will teach you how to avoid getting into this exact type of scenario. If this scenario does arise, however, you will also receive tools and learn various options to address the poorly performing employee and to lawfully terminate if appropriate.
