Misconduct Documentation 101: Writing Records That Win in Court

Overview :

Inappropriate behavior, poor performance, insubordination—when these issues arise, documentation is your first and best defense. But not all documentation is created equal. Sloppy notes, vague language, and incomplete records can do more harm than good when a termination or disciplinary decision is challenged in court.

Learn what to write (and what not to write), how to tie misconduct to company policy, and how to avoid common documentation mistakes that courts and agencies often cite when ruling against employers.

Packed with real-world examples and actionable takeaways, this session is a must for anyone involved in managing employee performance, handling complaints, or making disciplinary decisions.
