A supervisor’s action (or inaction) is often what results in liability for an employer. Not because the supervisor necessarily intends to expose an employer to legal liability but merely because the supervisor hasn’t been trained regarding the employer’s legal obligations in relation to its employees.

Employers are encouraged to train supervisors on various employment law topics, including but not limited to: harassment, discrimination, and retaliation; privacy rights; disability accommodations; leaves of absences; wage and hour requirements; and health and safety obligations. While a supervisor does not need to become an expert in human resources and employment law, a well-trained supervisor can be a valuable asset to help ensure an employer complies with the law.

Join Weintraub Tobin shareholders, Lizbeth “Beth” West and Lukas Clary for a discussion of best practices for training supervisors and reducing the potential for liability.
