SUMMARY:FREE webinar: Litigation-Proof and Libel-Free Layoffs
DESCRIPTION:Presenter:\nBettina Xue Griffin – Senior Legal Research Associate\, Blue J\n\n\nDescription:\nMarket 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: \n\nThe types of actions that can be taken by employers\nReal-world examples of layoffs and the issues that arose for organizations\nPractical insights on what the courts and arbitrators say about this issue\nHow practitioners can leverage technology to gain insights into this complex issue\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend: \n\nHR professionals\nLawyers and legal experts in the areas of labour and employment.\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is complimentary to all CPHR NL members. Please use the discount code :PDWEB-NL22\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Fees\n \n\nRegistration Deadline:\n JULY 3\, 2022 \n\n\n\nMember\n\nFREE! \n\n\n\nNon-Member\n\n$29.99

SUMMARY:Managing Unionized Environments (Halifax)
DESCRIPTION:There are three events in the labour relations series\, two in Halifax and the final one to be offered in St. John’s. \nSession Topic\nCollective 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. \nPROGRAM DETAILS\nLearn 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. \na) Interests\, Rights\, and Power \nWe first distinguish three related yet distinct concepts in how all of us approach problem solving: \nA focus on interests\, which calls for engaging\, motivating\, and coaching \nA focus on rights\, which involves setting boundaries\, rights\, and obligations \nA focus on power\, which calls for discipline\, accountability\, and enforcement of boundaries\nUnderstanding 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? \nWe 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. \nb) Understanding Human Rights in the Workplace \nWith 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:  \nHow to recognize harassment and discrimination\nThe DNA of a poisoned work environment\nHow to manage issues that arise related to harassment\nHow managing performance is related to human rights in the workplace\nWhat obligations that management and unions have in relation to human rights issues.\nIn 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. \nc) Dissecting the Collective Agreement \nYou’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? \nYou’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? \nYou’ll have an opportunity to identify the key areas for your own collective agreement\, and develop strategies for starting to address those issues. \nd) Managing Relations in the Unionized Environment \nIn 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. \ne) Applying Key Interest-Based Skills – The Dynamics of Trust \nEven 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? \nYou’ll be given a clear and easy-to-implement template for building and managing trust in the workplace. \nBuild your skills in: \nEliminating positional behaviour\nEffective listening in search of the “why”\nReality testing to engage difficult staff and effect change\nWorking effectively with difficult managers and members \nf) Managing and Applying Discipline \nWhen 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? \nIn 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? \ng) Performance Management that Works \nImproving 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:  \nSet expectations\nGive feedback that is heard\nExecute on the maxim\, “Gentle pressure\, relentlessly applied”. \nh) The View from the Union Hall \nHear the union perspective on discipline\, performance management\, and seniority.  \nWhat does the union look for in “good” supervisors?\nUnion duty to represent – goals and limits \nQuestions? Contact irc@queensu.ca. \nPricing \n\n\n\n Members        \n $3\,310.75 (15% OFF!)\n\n\n Non-Members\n                 $3\,895\n\n\n\nPlease contact admincoordinator@cphrnl.ca for the exclusive member discount code.
