5 Steps to Legal Background Checks That Really WorkHiring new employees is expensive and time-consuming—and if you hire the wrong person, the trouble and expense can be endless. Whether handled by supervisors and managers or assigned to a centralized human resources (HR) department, hiring decisions are among the most important decisions made in any company. Good hiring practices can eliminate or reduce many legal risks, reduce costs, increase productivity, and improve morale. Ill-advised hiring decisions, on the other hand, can result in turnover, duplicative training, missed opportunities, and lost customers. In addition, an ill-advised hire might well necessitate a subsequent termination, and every termination (no matter how justified and well documented) exposes the company to the risk of a wrongful termination/discrimination claim from the disgruntled former employee. For all these reasons, it pays to take the time to find the right person for the job the first time around. This special report describes five steps for conducting legal background checks that really work—so you hire the right people in the first place! In addition, we will provide you with several forms that will be useful in setting up a background check policy.

 Race Discrimination Audio Conference and CD - Credits: This program has been approved for 1.5 recertification credit hours toward PHR and SPHR recertification through the Human Resource Certification Institute (HRCI).

Description: Race discrimination is the #1 type of claim filed with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) - more than a third of the agency’s entire caseload in recent years. And, the stakes for employers keep getting higher. EEOC broke records in 2008 with the dollar amounts of its race discrimination settlements with employers. In 2009, the experts say, you’ll face even greater risks from race-related claims and lawsuits. Recent surveys show that 3 in 10 Americans have admitted feelings of racial prejudice, and they’re bringing those feelings into your workplace. The souring economy may encourage even more disgruntled workers to file claims seeking financial settlements. Plus, employment lawyers have recently identified new types of race bias claims that trip up even savvy employers - from lawsuits that combine racial and gender discrimination allegations to accusations that you didn’t hire certain workers due to the content of their video resumes. Join us for this important audio conference on February 20, as our expert speakers explain the do's and don’ts of recognizing and preventing race bias in your workplace. They’ll discuss not only the legal issues and risks involved in race discrimination claims, but also the practical ways you can train your supervisors and your frontline workers to stamp out these problems before they mushroom into lawsuits. You’ll also have the chance to submit the race bias questions that have been troubling you directly to our experts – anonymously, if you wish.

 Contractor Safety Management: How to Protect Yourself from Lawsuits, Injuries, and Legal Liability The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) is focusing much of its efforts on multi-employer liability through enforcement actions and citations. But even beyond the OSHA requirements, you need to be concerned about additional potential liability, employee exposure to contractor-created hazards, competency and certification issues with equipment and job performance, and so much more.

This is a dangerous path to go down – in fact, there are several things employers can do to control the legal and safety risks involved with on-site contractors. The key is knowing what to do, and when. This 90-minute audio conference CD is all about contractor safety management.

 Produced - 2009 Every year it returns, and every year it costs employers billions of dollars in sick pay, lost sales and decreased productivity. This year could be worse. We've all heard about the threat of H1N1 or "swine flu." How it's spreading across the globe. How it's expected to hit hard this fall and winter as the flu season develops. How 40% of the population could eventually catch it. But here's some good news. You can reduce infection rates in your workplace by training your employees to follow a few simple habits that stop them from spreading sickness to their coworkers--and help them avoid getting sick in the first place. Some of these habits are just common sense: wash your hands, don't use your coworker's telephone or computer keyboard, cover your coughs and sneezes. But how do you get people to remember and actually do these things, day after day? Video training is an effective way to get through to employees and change their behavior. And our new release from Stanford, "Resisting the Flu" is designed to do just that. Your employees will respond to this documentary-style short film with its straight talk from Dr. Eric A. Weiss, Medical Director of Disaster Planning and Associate Professor, Stanford University School of Medicine. In plain terms, Dr. Weiss lays out a blueprint for keeping your employees healthy and for resisting infection by the H1N1 virus. His practical advice extends to taking care of sick family members in ways that protect the caregiver and stop the spread within employees' households. And if things take a turn for the worse, Dr. Weiss also describes clear danger signs that help viewers know the difference between symptoms that are typical--and those that require immediate medical help. Do your part to limit the reach of this new pandemic, and protect your business by training all your employees. Working together, we can all contribute to lessening the impact of this uniquely threatening illness. Length: 13 minutes
