Quick actionable advice backed by research. I also appreciate the common format of the blueprints and depth that is available to make implementation dynamic to my application (I don't feel like I have to change the world at once).

8 Dicey Workplace Situations: Would You Make The Right Call?
Real-life Legal Cases Where Some Managers Got It Right …
… And Some Got It Wrong
Managers often stumble into pitfalls they never knew awaited them
This could be an unexpectedly long process of filling a new position on your team or the more extreme situation of handling a crying employee.
But, what happens when you’re blindsided by an employee lawsuit?
For example …
Did you know you could potentially be held personally responsible for the way you handle a disagreement between two of your employees?
Or what about an off-the-cuff promise made in an interview to a seemingly talented candidate …
… Only to find out they were not the right fit for the job?
Are you legally bound by what you said?
It’s important to equip yourself with the basics – from hiring to firing and everything in between.
You’ll be able to handle every potential curveball headed your way.
We’re not saying any of this to scare you but facts are fact – you need to know this stuff.
Here’s where to start …
Essential Insights
8 Employment Law Cases Every Manager Needs To Know
No legal mumbo-jumbo here. Just real-life cases that are clearly laid out in everyday language that’s simple for everyone to understand.
The details of each case are summarized, and each legal decision provides a lesson in how to – and how not to – deal with each situation
In this Essential Insights you’ll see why these cases were won or lost, plus:
- Case #1: An imminent violent threat or just blowing off steam: Where is the line drawn? (Delaying action against a relentlessly difficult employee can create a bigger – and potentially more expensive – problem, the longer you let it fester)
- Case #2: Key factors to understanding how far your responsibility as a manager can extend outside of the workplace. Plus, the one question that can help determine whether or not to take action
- Case #3: Does the old saying “an oral agreement isn’t worth the paper it’s written on” hold up in court? The one action you should be aware of that can become the determining factor in just how legally binding the promise you made is
- Case #4: Ensure you and your company are protected with this crucial course of action when any complaint is filed – bogus or not. It will help keep the law on your side
- Case #5: 3 general guidelines to follow when deciding what “reasonable” accommodations are for disabled employees.
- Case #6: Unwritten policies at work: The #1 red flag judges look for, if and when these types of lawsuits make their way to the courtroom
- Case #7: When it comes to pay-raise decisions – you absolutely, positively, need to have this essential component to cover yourself if and when a lawsuit presents itself
- Case #8: Debate: Performance Improvement Plans – a legal contract or written agreement? Two crucial elements to include in every PIP to protect you and your company from potential legal action
In this report, we break each case into six parts:
- Background details to get you up to speed
- The supervisor’s decision
- Why the employee sued
- The company’s position
- Who won – and why
- Analysis of the facts that led to the ruling
This fast-read guide details 8 common employee law situations that any manager could easily stumble into. Don’t get stuck thinking “this won’t happen to me”.
