If you are responsible for managing employees, you may find the need to handle a termination at some point. Handled badly, litigation may rise. In New Jersey, most wrongful termination suits fall into two major categories – retaliation and/or discrimination. Layoffs present other legal issues, including age discrimination.
What will be covered:
• Overview of at-will employment
• Employee legally-protected activity and retaliatory discharge
• Discrimination and gender stereotyping
• Biased performance appraisals
• Layoffs and age discrimination
