One of the major changes in supervisory and managerial responsibilities over the past several decades is the increasing number of state and federal laws that create liability for employers if supervisors don't understand how to correctly apply these laws. This course introduces a number of these laws and provides practical examples of how these laws impact on specific workplace situations.
In Legal Issues for Supervisors and Managers you will learn:
to identify laws protecting employees
how ignoring these laws creates employer liability
to apply these laws to specific workplace situations
What are the benefits of Legal Issues for Supervisors?
Knowledge of the laws protecting employees makes it more likely that supervisors will act within the law.
Proper supervisory decisions limit employer liability.
Applying the laws to specific workplace situations grounds supervisors with knowledge that makes it less likely that they will act in a way that results in charges and lawsuits.
