FREE webinar: Litigation-Proof and Libel-Free Layoffs
2022-07-05 14:00 - 15:00
Presenter:
Bettina Xue Griffin – Senior Legal Research Associate, Blue J

Description:
Market volatility, supply chain disruptions, and general economic instability cause employers to react by adjusting the size of their organizations. The recent layoffs in tech are just one example of this. It has recently become increasingly complex for employers to navigate layoffs in a way that is ethical, considerate of employees, and reduces the risk for the employers. How can layoffs be conducted in a way that reduces the risk of litigation or libel? What are factors often overlooked that place organizations in hot water – whether in the courts or the media?This webinar examines the difficult question in the content of any layoff (whether it is an individual, a small team, entire departments, or hundreds of employees across an organization) by teaching the fundamentals of reasonable notice and analyzing recent arbitration and court decisions on similar issues. Expect practical takeaways, like how leveraging technology helps practitioners answer these difficult issues.In this presentation, you will learn:

The types of actions that can be taken by employers
Real-world examples of layoffs and the issues that arose for organizations
Practical insights on what the courts and arbitrators say about this issue
How practitioners can leverage technology to gain insights into this complex issue

Who should attend:

HR professionals
Lawyers and legal experts in the areas of labour and employment.

Managing Unionized Environments (Halifax)
2022-07-26 - 2022-07-28 | The Prince George Hotel, 1725 Market Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia, B3N 3J9, Canada
There are three events in the labour relations series, two in Halifax and the final one to be offered in St. John’s.
Session Topic
Collective bargaining may get all the attention of the outside world but smart, day-to-day relationship management determines the effectiveness of managers and unionized workers. It is the ongoing resolution of issues and problems that arise daily that will either create a culture of success or one of resistance and fear. In this skills-building program designed for both supervisors and union representatives, the use and application of the collective agreement is placed into an intensely practical context.
PROGRAM DETAILS
Learn both management and union best practices on challenging issues such as discipline, performance management, and job competition. Develop interest-based skills to help eliminate positional behaviour and engage difficult people, be they managers or workers. Reduce friction arising from the daily interpretation of the collective labour agreement. Start using the collective agreement as a platform for productivity and achievement.
a) Interests, Rights, and Power
We first distinguish three related yet distinct concepts in how all of us approach problem solving:
A focus on interests, which calls for engaging, motivating, and coaching
A focus on rights, which involves setting boundaries, rights, and obligations
A focus on power, which calls for discipline, accountability, and enforcement of boundaries
Understanding the distinctions, and knowing when and how to pull on each of these levers, is a crucial initial learning. How can managers and union representatives effectively use these processes? How can you get management’s attention on important issues?
We then do a deep dive into interests, using the Triangle of Satisfaction as a means to understand three types of interests. This will help you to better diagnose people’s behaviour in the workplace and resolve workplace issues. In many cases, union representatives are focused on one set of these interests, while managers are focused on a completely different area, often leading to frustration. Managers and union reps will learn how to engage on the full range of key interests.
b) Understanding Human Rights in the Workplace
With the help of a case study, we examine the law, rights, and obligations governing the workplace, with a focus on both human rights legislation as well as recent developments, such as Ontario’s Bill 168. We work through the following themes:
How to recognize harassment and discrimination
The DNA of a poisoned work environment
How to manage issues that arise related to harassment
How managing performance is related to human rights in the workplace
What obligations that management and unions have in relation to human rights issues.
In this module, learn how to work effectively to build trust in the unionized environment, and how to apply power without causing long-term problems. Participate in a spirited discussion of the union’s role in building and maintaining a productive work environment.
c) Dissecting the Collective Agreement
You’ll learn all about the laws, rights, and obligations embedded in collective agreements that touch all parties. What are the key provisions and hot spots in the collective labour agreement that front-line managers need to know?
You’ll also be briefed on the grievance process. What is the front-line’s role in this process? What is the anatomy of a grievance? What are the best interventions from both a management and union perspective?
You’ll have an opportunity to identify the key areas for your own collective agreement, and develop strategies for starting to address those issues.
d) Managing Relations in the Unionized Environment
In this module, learn how to work effectively to build trust in the unionized environment, and how to apply power without causing long-term problems. Participate in a spirited discussion of the union’s role in building and maintaining a productive work environment.
e) Applying Key Interest-Based Skills – The Dynamics of Trust
Even when working with “rights” and “power”, you still need to engage people and build productive and sustainable workplace relationships. Trust is a key component of every relationship, workplaces included. What creates and builds trust, both on a personal and impersonal level? When trust is low or broken, what can help repair and rebuild it? How do we weave trust into everything we do, even when not everyone is getting what they want?
You’ll be given a clear and easy-to-implement template for building and managing trust in the workplace.
Build your skills in:
Eliminating positional behaviour
Effective listening in search of the “why”
Reality testing to engage difficult staff and effect change
Working effectively with difficult managers and members
f) Managing and Applying Discipline
When done properly, what does progressive discipline look like? How do you set boundaries that are respected? If you’re a front-line manager, how do you gather the facts and conduct a disciplinary meeting? When does the Human Resources department need to be brought in?
In addition, you’ll learn the best way to represent a member in the discipline process. What is best for the member, and the membership? How do you sell a result to the member that he or she may not like?
g) Performance Management that Works
Improving the performance of workers involves insight and a number of skills. Motivations need to be understood. Expectations need to be set collaboratively. In this module, learn how to:
Set expectations
Give feedback that is heard
Execute on the maxim, “Gentle pressure, relentlessly applied”.
h) The View from the Union Hall
Hear the union perspective on discipline, performance management, and seniority.
What does the union look for in “good” supervisors?
Union duty to represent – goals and limits

Accounting and Financial Management
Financial and management accounting knowledge is necessary to enable Human Resources Managers (HRM) to do their job effectively. In some cases, where the HRM are expected to carry out the activity, a detailed knowledge is required. This would be the case, for example, in respect of the preparation of operating budgets within HR, and the interpretation of control information based on those budgets. In other cases the HRM is expected to have a working understanding of the challenges faced by fellow members of the management team, where a familiarity with the concepts is more important than detailed knowledge.

Workplace Restoration (St. John's)
2022-09-27 - 2022-09-29
Session Topic
How do workplaces become toxic? These damaging environments often develop following a significant negative event, or because of a series of issues that slowly erode morale over time. The results can be devastating for an organization, leading to conflicts, a loss of talented team members, and a steady decline in productivity.
The Workplace Restoration program uses role-playing exercises, case studies and facilitated discussions to help you identify, monitor and address these situations. This program is critical for organizations experiencing disruption in workplace relations, such as prolonged conflict or bullying, increasing harassment or grievance claims, leadership issues, strikes, investigations, mergers and acquisitions, terminations or significant organizational changes.
Program details

A poisoned workplace is one in which the behaviours of people negatively affect communication and productivity. This hostile environment has a substantial impact on trust, morale, employee retention and your bottom line. Learn how to identify the root causes and restore a healthy, respectful and productive work environment.

a) Do you know what’s really happening in your workplace?
You’ll learn how to recognize the activities, events and issues that contribute to a toxic work environment, and how to use screening tools to better understand the signs and symptoms of conflict. We’ll explore ways to communicate the assessment process and discuss methods for working with employees to get at the root of the problem.
b) Using evidenced –based data for real analysis
Using simulations and proven methodologies, you’ll have the opportunity to learn new data collection techniques to support your analysis of your workplace and identify specific causes. You’ll learn how to create surveys and reports that clearly describe problems and provide direction for a rebuilding plan.
c) Developing a collaborative action plan
Stakeholder buy-in is a critical component of your planning process. We’ll help you develop a strategy that is transparent, collaborative and builds trust. You’ll learn how to communicate the results of your assessment and the situations that are negatively impacting your organization, while providing a safe space for honest discussions that pave the way towards workplace restoration.
d) Creating your healthy workplace
Once your restoration strategy is developed, we’ll show you how to effectively implement it. You’ll learn techniques and tools for building trust and coaching champions across the organization, which will in turn increase confidence and productivity.
e) Staying the course
Ensure that your action plan is sustainable with monitoring and ongoing assessment of your work environment. We’ll provide you with measurement tools to track potential recurrences, and practice strategies for addressing resistance to change.

CPHR Atlantic Presents: Where's the HR for HR? FREE Virtual Keynote
2022-10-06 13:30 - 14:30
Session Topic
Many people laugh at the definition of Human Resources which refers to us as “the unofficial psychologist, lawyer, event planner, teacher, peacemaker, career planner and detective .”This definition just serves as a constant reminder to me of what led to each of my burnout episodes. The truth is many HR professionals are struggling to be all things to everyone, and I am on a personal mission to see that change. In this presentation, you will learn what HR burnout looks like and the positive steps you can take immediately to start taking better care of yourself from today. Join me as I share my story of how I went from HR burnout to now creating safe spaces for HR professionals to lean in, grow and thrive.
