Whistleblowing | HR Issues | Retaliation
In every workplace today, “Human Resources Management” is almost totally influenced by state and federal laws, decisions and regulations dealing with workplace issues. Not too long ago, that was not true. Today it is.
A human resources manager, personnel officer or supervisor who tries to manage people and implement policies without access to a competent and experienced employment attorney is at risk. Many laws permit a violated worker to sue the Human Resources Manager, individually, in addition to the employer. Common sense is valuable – but it doesn’t go far enough. Taking a course once a year or so is valuable – but it doesn’t go far enough. Self-help study is valuable – but it doesn’t go far enough. Today, personnel management decisions are second-guessed in the courtroom according to rules of evidence and procedure which many human resources managers do not fully understand.
These are the practical realities of today’s business world. A business owner, CEO, operations officer, of any supervisor who resists needed expert human resources support is destined for a trip to the courthouse – perhaps many trips. It’s unfortunate; but it is reality.
Ideally, no decision regarding recruitment, placement, development, compensation or termination should be made without competent, experienced and informed employment counsel advice.
