HR Works' Supervisor School teaches best practices for supporting employment decisions, limiting liability

Seasoned supervisors know that developing a successful employment track record doesn’t just happen. It requires a series of well-grounded decisions in choosing the right person for the job, managing and documenting that person’s performance, ensuring the employee has the supervision and tools necessary to excel, and making decisions regarding promotion, reassignment or perhaps termination.

Companies that keep their supervisors abreast of best practices – on everything from supervisory techniques to knowledge of employment laws – improve their employee relations and position themselves well to prevent or withstand legal challenges. And that’s important, because some 50 percent of companies will face an employment-related lawsuit in the next five years. What gives rise to most claims? The actions of supervisors who are not trained in the requirements of federal and state laws.
“Supervisor School: Human Resource Fundamentals for Managers and Supervisors ” is a four-part series presented by HR Works, Inc., for anyone who hires, evaluates or otherwise manages employees. Participants will gain immediate knowledge of and practical applications for these essential functions, and will improve their understanding of federal and state laws governing employment.

The sessions are on Thursdays as follows:

• “Interviewing Skills for Supervisors,” March 20.


• “Communicating with Your Employees,” March 27.


• “Document, Document, Document,” April 3.


• “Termination: Facing the Dreaded Task,” April 10.




All sessions will be held from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. at HR Works’ second-floor training facility, 345 Woodcliff Drive, Fairport. The cost is $95 per person per session. Participants are encouraged to attend all four sessions for maximum benefit; however, attendees may choose fewer sessions. Early signup is encouraged, as the sessions are expected to sell out quickly.
