Human Resources professionals often are faced with making credibility determinations.  Whether the issue is the validity of an employee’ s workers’  compensation claim, internal complaint, or request for reasonable accommodation, HR professionals must be able to separate the wheat from the chaff.  Join us as we provide practical tools for determining whether an employee is telling you the truth, including how to interpret body language, how to ask key questions, when and how to push back with an employee, the proper use of written documentation, and other key practices.

Certificates are provided upon completion.

We hire employees to come to work, but what happens when they need protected time off or a reasonable accommodation?  In our annual two-part workshop, we provide detailed information about all of the relevant laws and regulations (including legal updates for 2020) and practical guidance on the challenging issues that arise in these areas.  Attendees will have the opportunity to work through new hypotheticals to test their knowledge, all of which are based on real life scenarios and require thoughtful analysis and strategy.

Because we have litigated cases in this complex area, and we counsel our clients every day on these issues, we are uniquely qualified to help you hone your skills.  Public and private sector Human Resources/EEO professionals of all levels will appreciate our practical and organized approach.  We answer the tough questions, and give you the tools you need to succeed.
