Preparing for and Conducting Discharge Meetings

---

Over 80% of all employment-related lawsuits relate to termination. Every termination should be treated as a potential lawsuit. The facts supporting a leader's recommendation of discharge must be fully investigated. The discharge of an employee requires prior review and approval.

This course provides practical knowledge and scripts for handling discharges with good judgment such that personal and employer liability is avoided.
