Approaches to Problem-Solving: Adding a Pinch of Practicality

Often, the law only provides part of the answer when solving legal issues in the workplace. For example, when there is more than one legal path forward, when practical realities (especially time and cost) affect decision-making, or when straight-forward scenarios become complicated because the underlying dynamics are messy.

This session will discuss legal, practical (and human) considerations employers should include in their decision-making process when navigating workplace issues, with a specific focus on starting, amending, and terminating the employment relationship.
