BenefitsEmployers must navigate a minefield of complicated and, in some cases, conflicting laws that affect the hiring process
Discrimination claims often arise out of the hiring process. The new U.S. Supreme
Court decision in
Ricci v. DeStefano, 557 U.S. ___ (2009) shows how an employer (the
New Haven
Fire Department in that case) can violate discrimination laws when taking steps to attempt to achieve nondiscriminatory selection and testing procedures.
This teleconference will cover the leading laws that regulate or affect the hiring process. The teleconference will go beyond explaining the laws and will give practical guidance on how to design and document selection and hiring procedures to reduce the risk of government investigations and litigation. Learn how to avoid pitfalls when running ads and asking interview questions, and what to include and review regarding applications, including how to handle criminal convictions. Learn about the use of background checks and the requirements of the
FCRA, pre-employment drug testing and more ways to ensure you comply with the laws when using these options. Learn about the pros and cons of using offer letters.
