Join attorneys Elizabeth Olivier and Jeffrey Peters on April 11, 2008 for a
one-day seminar on Employee Discharge and Documentation in Maine.
Topic: When can flawed documentation be worse than none at
all? Whether supervising one employee, or dozens, documenting performance and
conduct issues is often a manager's worst nightmare. Many managers feel that it
is too time-consuming, burdensome or just plain distasteful - especially when an
employee's performance or conduct falls short of company expectations. Although
documenting is not a legal requirement, here are three good reason why managers
need to take the time to properly document significant concerns:
- you can see whether a manager has been proactive in addressing issues with
underperforming employees;
- you can show that you had legitimate business reasons for disciplining or
terminating an employee; and
- you can minimize -- sometimes even avoid -- liability for wrongful
termination.
