Summer’s here and you don’t want to get ‘burned’ by the seasonal conditions. In today’s episode, Chuck and John explore the dangers of outdoor work conditions and how they can result in the most tragic of circumstances if you are not taking the proper steps to protect your employees.

In the HR News segment, the team touches on the following topics and more:

  • Years of experience on its way out of job requirements.
  • Is unemployment insurance the reason young males aren’t working?
  • More AI bias being caught in employment assessments.
  • Annual evaluations are out - monthly coaching sessions are in.

The viewpoints expressed by the characters in the stories are not necessarily that of The Team at HR Stories. The stories are shared to present various, real-world scenarios and share how they were handled by policy and, at times, law. Chuck and John are not lawyers and always recommend working with an employment lawyer to address concerns.
