Key Warnings from Last Year's Court Decisions
Every year key court cases reveal errors that HR, supervisors and managers
could have avoided. Some decisions also involve personal liability, and these
risks might have been avoided if the supervisors and managers had only
conferred with HR before they acted, and for that matter, if HR had, in certain
instances, sought advice before taking action. Be aware of new risk areas for
personal liability.
