A Manager's Guide to Discipline and Documentation

recognize principles of effective employee discipline
recognize examples of effective employee discipline
identify methods for determining how to respond to a disciplinary issue
recognize components of effective disciplinary documents
identify guidelines for fair and effective disciplinary meetings
communicate effectively and fairly with an employee about a disciplinary issue

Overview/Description
A key role for any manager or supervisor is to ensure employees meet the expectations for appropriate and lawful conduct at work. Dealing with problematic behavior and taking disciplinary action can be stressful. But simply ignoring or avoiding problems is not an option because it may signal to employees that inappropriate behavior is acceptable, and mishandling disciplinary issues may result in employee claims of wrongful termination, discrimination, or retaliation. Consistent and fair procedures, honest communication, and clear expectations can help managers deal with disciplinary issues in a way that improves behavior with fewer negative repercussions. This course explains the principles of effective employee discipline, including the concept of due process in the disciplinary procedure, and it describes how to respond to and document a disciplinary issue appropriately.

Overview/Description
Many people come to the United States in search of employment opportunities. While many of these people enter the country legally and have valid work authorization, there are many others who reside in the US illegally. Section 274A of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) requires employers to hire only individuals who are legally eligible to work in the US. The I-9 form is the key to compliance with this requirement and is used by US employers to verify the identity and work authorization of all individuals hired to work in the United States. The law requires employers to verify the individual’s identity and eligibility for employment by requiring the employee to produce documentation that verifies who they are, and that they are authorized to work in the US. This requirement applies to all employees – US and non-US citizens alike. Therefore, it's important to understand the requirements to be able to comply with the law. This course provides an introduction to I-9 compliance, focusing on the purpose of the form, who must complete it, when to complete it, how to use it to verify employment, and the legal compliance requirements associated with the law. It also provides a brief discussion about employing non-US citizens. These course materials and content are for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice.

The Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) establishes personal data privacy rights for Virginia residents. Among other things, it requires for-profit companies (that are not subject to GLB or HIPAA) that collect and process personal data must ensure individuals' rights to access, correct, and delete their data. It also requires individuals be notified of the data being collected, and be given the chance to opt-out of the sale and processing of their personal information for targeted advertising purposes. This course provides a high-level overview of the VCDPA for general employees of data controllers and data processors. It will help them understand the purpose and provisions of the law so they can apply the policies and procedures their employer has developed for VCDPA compliance, and aid them in spotting potential violations as they go about their day-to-day work.
