First Line of Defense: Employment Law Training System for Supervisors

Your organization’s leaders are hard-working, dedicated, and inspirational to their subordinates. But if you don’t provide essential employment law training, they can become a devastating liability. Their actions, responses, decisions, and comments can spark claims of harassment, discrimination, and more.

To help them succeed, and to help shield your organization from legal entanglements, train on essential dos and don'ts using the all-new First Line of Defense: Employment Law Training System for Supervisors. This video-based program contains everything you need to teach them about 12 legal “hotspots” before a problem arises.

Each half-hour DVD in the set combines professionally-acted vignettes with lively commentary from a team of employment law attorneys. Far from a boring recitation of dry legal points, the real-world scenarios and the follow up discussion brings key concepts to life and makes a lasting impression on your supervisors. They’ll emerge from First Line of Defense training invigorated, confident, and armed with the information they need to make the right decision in any management situation.

Your complete training system includes:

• 12 DVDs, each containing a presentation on a specific employment law topic
• Comprehensive Trainer’s Manual to lead you step-by-step through each session
• CD-ROM containing certificate of completion template, acknowledgement of training, attendance list, training session evaluation, and more.

  Unlike other training programs, this comprehensive kit is:
• Simple - for you and your staff. You get a complete turnkey training solution that combines direct guideance with re-enactments of common, highly plausible situations.

• Engaging - professional actors depict reality-based scenarios from the workplace, not the unrealistic, wooden and often absurd vignettes seen elsewhere.

• Cost-effective - train as many supervisors as you need to for one low price, then as needed as your operation expands and your management team changes. No per-user cost or expensive annual fee.

• Convenient - conduct training as it fits your organization's schedule, not that of some busy consultant.

• Authoritative - each scenario is followed by frank and easily understood commentary from experienced employment law attorneys.
