We discuss why HR is important and how trained managers are vital not only for avoiding illegal actions, such as ignoring requests for accommodation, but also for improving employee engagement. This session focuses on HR as a function that protects both the business and its employees. It also highlights the importance of ensuring employees understand company culture and behavioral expectations, including dress codes.
Many workplace problems can be avoided when organizations invest in manager training and establish clear behavioral expectations from day one. Wendy Sellers and Suzanne Lucas discuss the critical role HR plays in protecting both the business and its employees, covering topics such as accommodation requests, company culture, dress codes, and the importance of common-sense leadership in today's workplace.
