Can I terminate an employee who is “not a good fit” in their first few weeks? What information should be in a disciplinary warning? What is progressive discipline? Effectively handling employee discipline and termination is a challenging and risky responsibility for employers. On September 18, CalChamber’s “Discipline and Termination: Do’s and Don’ts” webinar can help employers manage their discipline and termination processes with confidence.
