Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Many company owners will find themselves needing to consult an employment attorney. Labor lawyer Hanna, in a no-nonsense, down-to-earth guide, helps corporate executives avoid the hassles of employee lawsuits. Not only are his instructions sound and relatively jargon free, the examples and (disguised) snippets of trial transcripts emphasize the need to become "master of the facts." Almost every possible question is anticipated--and answered in as straightforward a manner as possible. Do you wonder about the legalities of taping a telephone conversation? Chapter 8 covers all the pros and cons of electronic devices. How do you determine whether an employee warrants discipline or discharge? Try the four-step process of verbal warning, written warning, suspension, and then discharge. A necessity for all employers, large and small. Barbara Jacobs
