* Pretermination Checklist

Full Description

If you terminate an employee and don't take a checklist approach, you greatly increase your chances of being sued for wrongful termination, discrimination, or harassment. 56% of all employees end up winning their lawsuits, with the average damage in these cases being $200,000 plus. You'll feel a lot more comfortable having your deposition taken by a plaintiff's lawyer knowing that you made the effort to go through the pretermination checklist. As always, if you find yourself in a "hot spot," call your attorney.
