At a recent Fire Training Academy at Cuyahoga Community College, Weston Hurd Labor & Employment attorneys provided guidance to fire chiefs and first officers on navigating various employment-related issues they may encounter as part of their administrative duties.
The two-hour interactive program utilized learning techniques such as lecture, audience response software and video vignettes covering topics including:
- Unfair labor practices and SERB
- Dealing with illness in the workplace and how to treat leave requests under the FMLA, ADA and workers’ compensation
- Ohio’s Whistleblower statutes
- Retaliation
- First Amendment
- EEO compliance and procedures
- Hostile work environment/harassment
