Learn about the potential pitfalls in employee relationship management and how to mitigate the risk of exposure.
Relocating an employee or group of employees invokes a myriad of potential employee relations, labor relations, and legal considerations that may not be fully appreciated at first glance. This program will provide attendees with tools for their respective tool kits on how to ensure “smooth sailing” during the transition process while also mitigating the risk of prospective legal exposure and avoiding prospective safety concerns.
Learning Objectives
- You will be able to describe the potential legal pitfalls in employee relationship management and how to mitigate the risk of exposure.
- You will be able to discuss why a written employee relocation management plan is not optional but a necessity.
- You will be able to recognize the importance of effective employee relations for transferred employees as well as those who were not selected.
- You will be able to review why it may make sense to seek new hire(s) in the new jurisdiction rather than transferring human resources from the transferred jurisdiction.
