Fall 2023 Breakfast Briefings - Downstate

Managing the Struggling Employee: Mental and Emotional Health and the Law

As more and more workers struggle with anxiety, depression and related conditions, it is more necessary than ever for human resource personnel to be adept at responding to these situations. This complimentary seminar will focus on the myriad of issues associated with cognitive, mental and emotional health conditions, including performance management, leaves and other accommodations. We will also cover issues related to aging employees who may be experiencing cognitive decline. Our approach will be to present real life scenarios and discuss practical responses. 

Topics Include: 

• Mental and emotional health as a protected disability
• Anxiety, depression and performance management 
• Responding to the undiagnosed and/or in-denial employee
• Allegations of workplace bullying or hostile environment as contributing factors 
• The duty to accommodate (and its limits)
• Handling the disruptive worker and concerns about workplace violence
• The aging worker and cognitive decline
• Engaging on retirement and exit strategies

We hope you will join us for this timely and important Breakfast Briefing offered across New York State. Please note, these complimentary sessions are live, in-person and will not be recorded.
