Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An all-inclusive, how-to-do-it manual of policies, procedures, guidelines and forms regarding employee terminations. Managers, human resource directors and business owners will find up-to-date, practical and professional information to help them develop sound policy guidelines for dismissals, discharges, lay-offs, and reductions-in-force. It covers: current terminations practices; legal considerations, recent court rulings and legal trends that affect the development or enhancement of termination; as well as statutory benefit entitlements, severance pay, and benefits continuation policies and procedures. Features guidelines for using effective work rules and employee conduct rules, positive disciplinary actions, and documented warnings to support termination actions. It also shows how to comply with the provisions of federal laws that limit a company's ``at-will'' employment rights, and suggests steps for ensuring that minority, female and older (``protected employee'') terminations are sound, unbiased and supportable. Additionally, it describes strategies for avoiding costly former employee litigation.
