Employees are one of the most important resources of a company, and, although a company may have established a strong relationship with them, saying goodbye is oftentimes inevitable. Cessation of the employee-employer relationship should be handled well in the proper way in a valid process.
This one-day seminar is applicable to all types of businesses including non-profit organization. It is for everyone involved in employee management.
The seminar will cover topics such as the rights of employer and employee, substantive and procedural due process before dismissal, just causes for dismissal such as serious misconduct, sexual harassment, insubordination or wilful disobedience, neglect of duties, abandonment of work, fraud, and wilful breach of trust and confidence, commission of a crime or offense, and other causes of dismissal under Article 282 identified as “analogous.”
Authorized causes for dismissal such as termination due to closure of establishment and reduction of personnel as well as closure of business operations will also be tackled.
The objective of the seminar is to teach everyone everything they need to know about termination laws. Additionally, participants will learn the concept of positive discipline, coaching, mentoring, how to implement the grievance machinery, use preventive suspension, and provide solutions to the most challenging as well as common problems encountered by management.
