Training Overview
Recession-proof yourself with an Employment Law Certification.
Upskilling is the best way to build immunity from the looming recession that has already prompted thousands of layoffs. Demonstrable professional knowledge can help you justify an inflation-busting raise, earn a promotion, and enhance your job security.
Human resources professionals must understand hundreds of employment laws and regulations. Lingering pandemic effects, heightened compliance scrutiny, and recently revised OSHA rules made the legal requirements even more complex in 2022. 2023 will bring new challenges. From hiring through termination, you need to help employees, avoid lawsuits, and protect your organization.
