Smart Start! Managing Employees Who Bring Their Problems to Work

Description

Enlightened employers understand their workers are human — and that outside pressures can sometimes wreak havoc on a worker’s performance, behavior or even their physical well-being.

While it’s not your place to fix anyone’s problems, you can provide resources to help employees work through whatever they’re dealing with. This one-hour webinar shows you how. Watch today for the strategies you need to support employees without overstepping boundaries or hurting productivity. Here’s a look at what’s covered:

• Identifying personal problems that could affect employee performance
• Recognizing warning signs that an employee may be struggling with personal issues
• Effective approaches for gathering information while respecting employee privacy
• Confidentiality — what are your obligations to your employee and your company?
• Addressing harmful workplace gossip about employees going through tough times
• Oversharing personal issues in the workplace — and what you can do about it
• Protecting your team when an employee’s personal crisis puts everyone’s safety at risk

This is a hybrid meeting. Join either in-person at First 5 Shasta, 393 Park Marina Circle, or on Zoom! For those attending on Zoom, a Zoom invitation will be sent to your email on January 22, 2025.
