HR Hero Audio Conference on CD and Streaming Audio
Jonathan Mook and Michael Barnsback
October 29, 2009
With each CD purchase, you get FREE access to streaming audio. CD and streaming audio are available 3 days after each live event.
Even though the live seminar on this topic has already taken place, you can still hear it! For your convenience, we've recorded it on CD and audio stream, so you can listen when you have time or share it with colleagues in your organization.
Poorly written job descriptions can wreak workplace havoc, instill confusion, and leave employers exposed to devastating lawsuits. And now the newly-amended Americans with Disabilities Act has further complicated what was already one of HR's most challenging tasks.
Learn how to create job descriptions that comply with the new ADA, that avoid legal liability, and that serve to keep your managers and staff on track by participating in the HR Hero audio conference, Essential Function: Writing ADA-Compliant Job Descriptions.
In just 90 minutes, an experienced employment law attorney and a nationally-recognized employment law authority on the ADA will answer your toughest questions, including:
- What are the pros and cons of having job descriptions? Are they really necessary? What types of positions lend themselves to descriptions?
- What are the key issues to consider? For example, what’s the best wording to justify exempt status? Are all essential functions properly noted to avoid ADA liability?
- What are the specific new challenges from the newly-amended ADA?
- How should workers’ compensation issues be handled?
- What other new or proposed laws need to be considered as job descriptions are being written?
- What are the critical legal issues to be considered?
- How can you avoid language that could signal unlawful discrimination in hiring and promotions?
- What is the proper job description language for discipline and termination issues?
- What are the practical, productivity-related issues to consider? For example, how should job descriptions affect performance standards, how employees are evaluated, etc.?
- How specific should you make your job descriptions?
- How can you avoid poorly written job descriptions? Your speaker will list examples of descriptions that could invite legal trouble.
- What's the best way to keep job descriptions accurate and up to date?
