When performance issues arise, employers should address them directly and contemporaneously. Consistent, clear, and well-structured performance documentation is essential to protecting the organization and supporting employees' growth, or exit if appropriate. Without proper documentation, employers might end up in the penalty box themselves.

In this practical and engaging webinar, employment law attorney Breann Cortes will break down how to effectively document performance concerns, coach employees, and build a defensible record. Topics will include:

  1. Ensuring consistency in performance documentation
  2. Understanding the "why" and "how" behind effective documentation
  3. Examples of drafting clear and defensible write-ups
  4. Conducting proper follow-ups after issuing a write-up
  5. Drafting an effective Performance Improvement Plan (PIP)
  6. Leveraging performance reviews as a documentation tool
