TRACK ONE

Session 1: HR CSI: Handling Internal Investigations Quickly, Safely, Legally and Compassionately
The courts are looking closer than ever at exactly how companies are conducting internal investigations. Whether it’s an on-site accident, harassment claims, or something else, it’s never been more crucial to dot every “i” and cross every “t”. Join us for this session and learn the step-by-step strategies you need to follow for every investigation. Don’t let the “beautiful people” on TV have all the fun. Become your company’s very own CSI unit!

Session 2: The Latest in Screening Strategies: Uncovering Potential Employee Issues
In today’s competitive business environment, you can’t afford to make hiring mistakes. That’s why so many HR professionals rely on screening strategies to help them uncover the best employees for their organization. In this dynamic session, you’ll learn the latest information on testing employees, how to determine if an applicant has given you false information, where the courts stand on personality testing and more!

Session 3: The Secrets of Effective Recordkeeping
Nothing is more important or essential to HR professionals or their organizations than accurate and legal recordkeeping strategies. Accurate records reduce legal liability and enhance organization and efficiency. Learn the latest requirements for safeguarding employee records and information, records you must keep on every employee, what to keep and what to toss and more! Don’t miss your chance to analyze and upgrade your recordkeeping process.

Session 4: Predicting Greatness: Foolproof Recruiting and Interviewing Skills
It’s pretty simple: Find the best person to fill a need in your company. Then why, oh why, is this one of the most frustrating duties an HR pro can have? No one needs to tell you the costs involved in making a bad hire. And if it’s a bad hire, you can even damage your company’s image or productivity beyond repair. Learn how to identify the bad apples in that stack of resumes on your desk. And even more importantly, learn how to spot a potential superstar in the making when you join us for this critical training session.

Session 5: Disaster Planning Essentials No HR Professional Should Be Without
The statistics are frightening: A significant number of today’s companies do not have comprehensive written disaster recovery plans. Forget about terrorist attacks … these companies wouldn’t even be able to survive a water main break that floods their offices! If your company doesn’t have a plan, or if you think the plan you have isn’t up to snuff, attend this session and you’ll go back to work armed with all the data you need to convince everyone about the importance of having a disaster recovery plan that everyone can follow if you ever need it.

TRACK TWO

Session 1: Administering FMLA: The Latest Legal Developments
If you want to minimize costly FMLA administration errors and get the latest news on regulation changes and court rulings, you need to stop by and give us a few minutes of your time. In just one session, we’ll show you how to avoid the most common FMLA mistakes that even veteran HR managers make. Plus, you’ll be armed with the information you need to prevent employee abuse of this most complicated and complex law. Afterward, you’ll know how to correctly administer eligibility and save your company from wasting time and money.

Session 2: Understanding FLSA Regulations, Classifications, and Gray Areas
When it comes to FLSA regs, sometimes it seems like those “gray areas” are a lot bigger than the “black and white” stuff. If you’re not 100% confident that your company’s policies and procedures are completely compliant, you MUST join us for this session. Don’t risk a costly class action lawsuit or an audit by the DOL! Learn about the latest FLSA hot spots and get all your questions answered!

Session 3: Combating and Eliminating the Threat and Consequences of Sexual Harassment
For years, many companies have spent huge amounts of time and money to educate their employees on the seriousness of sexual harassment. Yet, statistics show that despite HR professionals’ best efforts, far too many sexual harassment cases are being brought up every day. Join us for this session and learn how to combat this terrible situation ... gain total employee buy-in for what you’re teaching ... and identify problem spots before something happens. Sexual harassment charges can destroy a company in every way that matters. Make sure your company doesn’t become a statistic.

Session 4: Privacy in the Workplace: The Constant Struggle Between Your Rights, Their Rights, and What’s Right
Talk about walking a tightrope! There’s not an HR executive around who hasn’t danced this dance many times before. Join us for this session and get an up-to-the-minute look at what the courts are saying about the rights of employees when it comes to privacy. You might be surprised at what you hear! Learn about the consequences of workplace monitoring and how to balance your business interests with those of your employees. A truly eye-opening session that you won’t want to miss!

Session 5: Discipline and Termination Strategies That Make Painful Decisions More Tolerable for Everyone
When it comes to employee discipline, there seem to be a lot of “flavor of the month” strategies. But how do you know what will work best for you and the troubled employee? Join us for this session and learn effective techniques for turning around the toughest problem employees. And, get a step-by-step plan for handling the termination process if you have an employee who doesn’t want to “be saved”. Protect yourself, your company, and your other employees in every way.
