One of the many hats supervisors wear is that of a human resource representative. Supervisors must be aware of their role in helping employees succeed and limiting legal exposure to the organization and themselves. The Human Resources and Supervision course details employment legislation, including discrimination and sexual harassment, which could impact a supervisor, manager, or employee. This course also provides supervisors tips, techniques, and guidelines for effective interviewing and employee orientation. Particular emphasis is placed on behavioral-based interviewing and building a comprehensive employee orientation program. Finally, the importance of leveraging diversity in the workplace and creating a culture of inclusion is explored as a means to improve the organization's bottom line. This course is designed for front-line and middle-level managers and supervisors.
