She has over twenty years in experience helping employers create equitable and safe work space environments for both employers and employees.

This is for everybody whether you have fifty employees or just one. You need to know these procedures so that an employee can’t come back and sue you. Show Notes: What should a business owner be looking for on a candidate’s resume? Are there red flags on a resume to look for? How should you approach calling references?

What sorts of the things should be discussed when talking to an employee that is not meeting expectations?
