Essential HR Training for Supervisors and Managers

They may be asked to help with performance improvement plans, in handling employee concerns, or take responsibility for disciplines or even be part of a termination. Supervisors should be aware of the best way to avoid mistakes and how to protect themselves and the company against possible litigation.
