Human Resource Managers often face complex and challenging tasks at work. To complicate their work, there are a lot of workplace and employment laws that they must abide by and comply with.

In addition to learning about employment laws and how to deal with them, human resources professionals will learn about the best practices and strategies that they can use in the human resources department.
Our "Certificate Program For HR Generalists" seminar in Houston lasts for three days and covers all of the general aspects that a human resources professional must know and be able to do successfully in order to succeed at their job.

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) place a burden that employers must fill. Failure to comply with these federal regulations can lead to lawsuits and fines. It is therefore imperative that you have human resources personnel that are knowledgeable in how these laws apply to the company. Due to the fact that these laws may be amended or changed, it is important to stay up to date.
Our "FMLA and ADA Compliance Certificate Program" in Houston is an intensive three-day program that will teach human resources personnel everything they need to know about these two laws.
Upon completion of the seminar, employees will understand what they are obligated to do, how they can comply with these laws, and best practices. The “FMLA and ADA Compliance Certificate Program” is held in Houston several times a year, and goes beyond just FMLA and ADA. It also touches upon other leave laws and issues such as military duty, sick leave, pregnancy, and compensation. Reducing absenteeism and specific state and local laws are also discussed to make sure HR staff are fully aware of them and are ready to deal with them should the need arise.

An internal investigation is often required when conflicts or disputes arise in a company.
Given the immense amount of regulations and laws that govern this matter, it is critical to have staff and policies in place to handle internal investigations in a highly transparent and expedient manner.
One of the best ways to ensure both a fair process and a skilled staff handling internal investigations is to have human resources personnel undergo annual internal investigation training. These seminars lay out how to handle internal investigations professionally and within the bounds and requirements of the law.
Our "Certification Program For Internal investigations" is held over three days several times a year in Houston, and covers several key topics related to internal investigations. This includes understanding the underlying causes of complaints and conflict in the workplace and federal laws that pertain to complaints and harassment.
Other major topics discussed during the internal investigation in our Houston seminar include coming up with an effective investigation strategy, compliance, interviews, communication and how to share results with company leadership. Our Internal Investigations seminar culminates with a skills building workshop where participants put the skills they developed over the course of the seminar to actual use.
