NEW 20-MINUTE ONLINE TRAININGS
May 2022
Employee Relations is excited to announce that our team has developed four new “Just in Time” 20 minute online trainings for leaders! Our office has worked to strategically package these trainings with valuable information that every leader, with supervision responsibilities, needs to know.
The trainings will guide leaders step-by-step on how to handle a simple coaching session or counseling session to more challenging incidents that requires gathering statements about what happened, and placing the employee on administrative leave. Completion of these trainings will equip leaders with knowledge and understanding on how to be more proactive, in advance of an employee related incident. The trainings come with a useful take away document of key learning points to remember!
HOW TO ACCESS THE TRAININGS: You can click the links below! You can also access the trainings via your MyCompass dashboard today or the OHR website, Employee Relations, Training area. In the near future, the Manager’s Toolkit, on the OHR website, will also be an avenue to access the trainings.
Leaders will learn the difference between a Coaching Session and a Counseling Session. This training will help leaders be proactive in the early stages of documentation.
Leaders will learn how to effectively document an incident. Key concepts are taught that will ensure personal opinions are excluded from the documentation and there are objective supporting facts.
- Writing Effective Disciplinary Notices “Coming Soon”
Leaders will learn step-by-step how to write an effective disciplinary notice to include clarity in necessary attachments to support the discipline step.
- Conducting Workplace Investigations “Coming Soon”
Leaders will learn how to gather supporting witness statements to include clarity in each step, all the way to the completion of the case.
Presently, Employee Relations reviews written warnings, in advance of the warning being presented to the employee. Once Writing Effective Disciplinary Notices and Conducting Workplace Investigations goes live, Employee Relations will no longer require written warning review, in advance of the written warning being presented to the employee. Exceptions to Employee Relations reviewing written warning requests, are addressed in these two trainings. These two trainings will roll-out very soon.
Employee Relations required review of termination requests will remain unchanged.
