About this webinar
Do you worry that your actions as a child care administrator may encourage a parent to sue your program? This webinar will offer practical advice on how to reduce the risks of lawsuits. Two attorneys will help guide you through the legal maze to avoid illegal discrimination, maintain confidentiality, and establish policies and procedures to resolve conflicts.
This webinar will help child care administrators reduce the risks of lawsuits by offering practical advice on how to handle issues with potential legal consequences: parents picking up children while drunk, staff gossip, confidentiality in the age of the Internet, hiring and firing employees, and addressing child abuse and neglect, avoiding illegal discrimination.
All sessions are 1.5 hours long, and include a brief announcement from our sponsor. 2:oo PM – 3:30 PM Eastern Time.
