Article Body:
Outsourcing to a Professional Employment Organization (PEO) or an Administrative Service Organization (ASO) like AmCheck has significant advantages. One key benefit is that your PEO/ASO's Human Resource Department can guide you through the complexities of federal discrimination laws. This expertise is crucial in the hiring and firing process, helping protect you from potential discrimination lawsuits.In recent years, navigating legal challenges with prospective, current, and former employees has become increasingly complex. Consider the care needed in handling employee relations due to sexual harassment laws, or the requirements of The Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) to prevent age-related lawsuits. Additionally, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) mandates accommodations for employees with disabilities.
Beyond federal regulations, employers may face state and local laws that must also be considered, especially when promoting or transferring employees.
Consult with our HR Department before making any employment decisions. The HR Fact Finder advises that companies protect themselves from legal issues by avoiding impulsive actions related to hiring, firing, transfers, and promotions. By making well-considered decisions, a company can reduce the risk of facing discrimination lawsuits.
A Case in Point:
During a recent downsizing at a large corporation, five women, including a female manager with over 12 years of experience, were transferred to another department with reduced compensation. Meanwhile, a less experienced male was set to replace the female manager. Although this restructuring might have been intended to enhance efficiency, the move appeared discriminatory, prompting all five women to seek legal counsel.This article is brought to you by AmCheck.
