How to Lawfully Document Performance Issues and Discipline Disabled and Other "Protected" Employees 

Presenter:  James B. Sherman, Esq.

The ADA and other workplace laws protect disabled employees from discrimination, retaliation and in many instances require that employers provide leaves of absence (e.g. FMLA) and reasonable accommodations. As a result, employers often struggle with decisions involving performance issues for fear of being sued.
 
This 1 hour webinar presented by attorney James B. Sherman will discuss employer rights, within the responsibilities imposed by law, to nevertheless manage their workforces. Topics to be addressed include:
  • How to lawfully document common performance issues while avoiding "regarded as" disabled claims under the ADAAA;
  • How to document the process of exploring reasonable accommodations in good faith; and
  • When it may be appropriate to discharge a non-performing employee.
