Hiring, Firing and Discipline for Employers

Frank L Day,Robbin Hutton,Latanyia S Walker

Before a coach at a top-notch college football program recruits a quarterback, he clearly knows what physical and mental abilities the recruit should possess. He also must evaluate whether the recruit will fit the culture of the football program and that of the school.

Before a hiring decision is made, a position description should be written, which clearly defines, in writing, exactly the type of individual who will meet the criteria of the job and the culture of the department and the company.
Today’s marketplace holds few constants. But there is one certainty - every company, no matter the size, possesses only one true advantage over its competition and that is its people. On any given day, the operations, manufacturing processes, products, and distribution methods, even well laid marketing campaigns can be copied with relative ease.
But no amount of imitation can duplicate the workforce. How this unique resource is managed will determine the success or failure of an organization.
Therefore, in order for a company to achieve a competitive advantage it must hire the right people. Once hired, an employer needs to create an environment in which those new hires will be successful. This is not easy. It requires effective management practices, which must also be in compliance with the laws of the United States and applicable state law.
This book will help ensure that employment practices are legal. J. Dylan King, Jessica Asbridge, and Frank Day are all management attorneys with FordHarrison, LLP. They represent employers on employment related matters, including wage and hour disputes, discrimination claims, investigations by government agencies, including the Department of Labor (DOL) and Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and their state-agency equivalents, and provide counseling on all types of employment practices and policies. Dylan, Jessica, and Frank undertook the task of compiling and editing the federal and state employment laws in this that affect hiring, firing and discipline.
