Overview : Workplace violence is the number one cause of workplace fatalities for women. Eighteen thousand weekly workplace assaults cause 500,000 employees to lose 1,751,000 days of work annually, with a loss of $55 million in wages (3.5 days per incident); in fact, 18% of all crimes occur in the workplace.

Although workplace violence might seem to happen at random, there are often patterns and warning signs that indicate when violent reactions are imminent. Have your managers and supervisors been trained to recognizing those patterns and their associated warning signs? Do they know how to take preventive measures to keep violence from occurring in your workplace? In this program, you will learn about the causes and warning signs of violence in the workplace, the employer's legal duty to provide a safe workplace, responses to violent or threatening behavior at work, and more.

Discuss do’s and don’ts when dealing with potentially violent individuals
List risk factors for potential violence at the workplace

Overview : This webinar exposes employers to the most important state and federal (ergonomics and related) regulations existing today and workers' compensation legislations that impact how work injuries are managed.

The program will explore the science of ergonomics including the primary and secondary risk factors that are important in preventing cumulative trauma, repetitive motion injuries and other musculoskeletal claims.

Why should you attend: Steven Covey, author of "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" said that in order to gain control over problems, you must first seek to understand the problem. Then it will be understood what is needed to manage it better. Work injuries are no different. Many employers disregard the importance of actively managing their workers' compensation because they don't seek to understand the root cause of the problem. Many assume that workers’ compensation is a cost of doing business; that their worker' compensation insurer or third party payer will do the job they were hired to do and that the physician managing the employee's injury will do their part to manage the medical care properly. Unfortunately, that is not the case. When it comes to work injuries, the Employer should be the main one in the driver's seat managing the care of the claim, directing the other players on how to best manage it to incur the least impact. This is best done by understanding the root cause of musculoskeletal disorders.

Areas Covered in the Session: The discussion will introduce employers to the importance of establishing an Ergonomics Process for integrated disability management which includes the prevention of injuries, management of workers' compensation claims and chronic impairments that result in long term disability. Successful outcomes of ergonomics process case studies will be discussed addressing an individual case in which ergonomics was used successfully and from a process oriented approach resulting in employers' saving millions of dollars in claim prevention and management. If you want to get a handle on how your company manages its work injuries, this webinar will give you the insight you need to change the way you and your employees' work.

Overview : Every manager encounters employees who cross the line into unacceptable behavior. Maybe they tell off-color jokes. Spread gossip. Act like slobs. Practice poor personal hygiene. Ridicule core organizational values. Or violate company rules and policies.

Lots of managers don't have the toolkit to confront dysfunctional employees so they practice avoidance, which erodes morale and - worst of all - destroys their own credibility. Great managers recognize that putting a stop to unacceptable behavior requires a complex mix of communication skills, persuasion, intuition, toughness and credibility. They know how to probe for the reasons behind the behavior, anticipate reactions, manage expectations, seek alignment, set boundaries and hold people accountable. When bosses learn how to confront employees effectively, they create a culture where lines are clearly drawn, and bad behavior is instantly recognized by all as unacceptable. In this 90-minute webinar.

Areas Covered In the Seminar:

How to spot and stop problematic behavior early – before it takes firm root in your workplace
The most common behavior-, conduct-, and appearance-related issues managers should be able to identify and prepared to address
The key areas to focus your time and attention to prevent bad behavior from permeating your workplace in the first place
Strategies for getting to the bottom of the negative attitude or conduct – and why this is so important
How to communicate effectively - and constructively - with the offender, including how to provide candid feedback without fueling his or her contempt
How to use positive reinforcement to get naysayers on board with the rest of the team
The difference between counseling and disciplining, and how to tell which is appropriate for the circumstances presented
How to engage in difficult conversations, whether the employee is a rampant gossiper, a chronic complainer, an inappropriate dresser, or another type of behavior/conduct offender
The importance of progressive discipline, and why it's important to explain the consequences the employee may face if he or she fails to make an attitude adjustment
How to know when it's time to fire a "bad apple" employee – and how to go about it to reduce your risks of a lawsuit

Overview : Is there anything more important to a manager than having the ability to motivate others? Probably not. But having focused enthusiastic employees is the key ingredient to excellent client, customer service or patient care. Unless people care about what they are doing and are prepared to go the extra mile they will never be able to satisfy the rising expectations of those that they serve.

Theories of motivation abound. A closer look at all of them suggests more similarities than differences. So, it is not feasible or sensible to follow one theory only. Rather, as motivation is a science and an art it is necessary to scour the landscape and find those ideas that work for each of us knowing that our efforts will need to be sustained and flexible as circumstances change.

This workshop will cover the most current ideas on motivation giving participants real practical ideas that will work in any work environment.

Why you should attend: There are few topics more difficult to deal with than motivation. Why? Firstly, motivating others suggests that there is a parent-child relationship between manager and employee. In other words it is the manager’s job to motivate the employee and the employee has little responsibility to be self motivated. That is untrue and unfair. But as the senior partner in the relationship, managers have a responsibility to create the climate in which employees will want to stretch. Secondly, there are different generations that have different expectations and needs in the workplace - Millennials, generation X and Y to name a few of many that theorists have decided are different and unique. And, them there are people from different cultural, ethnic and gender background to add an additional complication to the issue. Motivating each generation and employees from such different backgrounds is challenging, to say the least. But making sense of it all is important and will be the challenge of this webinar.

Areas Covered In the Seminar:

Understand the basic principles of motivation
Apply these principles to their organization
Understand the challenges of motivating a new generation of worker
How to motivate different generations of employees
The power of engagement
The importance and strategies regarding recognition and rewards

Overview : Employee classification is a basic and important task that pertains to the payroll process. If this process is flawed then chances are that the information produced by the payroll department is wrong! This also increases the chance for audits of other payroll procedures that can also give way to hefty penalties. Don't let this chain of events come to pass!

Why you should attend: The largest penalties ever levied against a company or individual for violation of federal Department of Labor regulations has to do with incorrect classification of employees. The amounts of the penalties involved could cripple or kill nearly any business entity since there IS NO PROVISION within these regulations that give any breaks to any company just because they are a small business. The fine is the fine no matter whether the misclassification was intentional or due to an oversight!
