When Everyday Manager Decisions Create Legal Risk
September 30 • 2–3 pm ET
Learn how to identify legal risk in everyday manager decisions and prevent seemingly reasonable choices from becoming costly legal challenges.
Managers make dozens of decisions every day, from responding to employee concerns and accommodation requests to approving time sheets and making hiring decisions. Increasingly, these routine moments can carry legal and organizational risk.
For many employees, their manager is the compliance program in practice. Yet managers don’t always know how to approach decisions or when it’s time to involve HR.
Join Traliant attorney Elissa Rossi for a timely look at where legal risk surfaces in everyday manager decisions, including examples of how seemingly reasonable choices can lead to legal challenges and what organizations can learn from them.
You’ll learn:
- Where legal risk can surface in routine manager decisions
- Why good intentions don’t always lead to fair or defensible outcomes
- How inconsistency, weak documentation and missed escalation create risk
- How to help managers recognize when a situation requires HR guidance
- How organizations can better prepare managers for the decisions they’re already making
