Participants will learn what workplace conduct is protected and how to identify, investigate and prevent risky management practices. 

You do everything right: conduct a prompt, thorough investigation of an employee's complaint, deliver training and have a solid policy. Then you learn a manager has taken action against an employee who made a complaint. What started out as one claim has now turned into two. Retaliation claims have doubled in the last ten years and the verdicts can be staggering.  Don't miss this interactive session and learn how to prevent and investigate these costly claims.
