Live FutureOffice Network Smartcast - Best Practices in Termination

Oct. 10, 2012 - PRLog -- Fast firing of an employee sounds easy, like pulling the Band-Aid off. However, ensuring that the termination process is done correctly – and legally – it is crucial to assess the situation from all angles, and to lead in with a strong strategy if termination is indeed the appropriate route.

The first step in the termination process should be to note a solid reason for termination. If it was merely a “bad fit”, for example, offer more detail.  By only listing a vague reason, the employer makes itself vulnerable to unlawful termination suits. This is where the actual reason for termination applies and ties into post-employment benefits received, if any. The next couple steps taken in the termination process will keep your business out of legal trouble.

Join Craig J. Davidson, CEBS, with the FutureOffice Network for “Best Practices in Termination” on Tuesday, October 16th, at 10 am and will be repeated at 1 pm.  All times are central time.  To sign up for this webinar go to http://futureofficenetwork.com/fonsmartcast.aspx.  FutureOffice Network Smartcasts are free and open to the public.
