FREE Online Webinar: Progressive Discipline: What Supervisors Must Know
Sep 10 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am

ON-LINE: Progressive Discipline: What Supervisors Must Know

INSTRUCTOR:  Mark Allen, NMC General Counsel and Greg Rees, Loss Prevention Manager

Date: Wednesday, September 10, 2025

Time: 10am to 11am

Participant certificates will be provided.  

Target Audience: County supervisors, managers, and HR employees  

Description: Handling employee performance and behavior issues isn’t easy — but it can be done fairly, consistently, and effectively. This training gives supervisors the tools and confidence to apply progressive discipline the right way. When done properly, progressive discipline is more than a process: it’s a safeguard that promotes improvement, ensures fairness, and, if termination becomes necessary, provides the just cause that makes it stick.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:

✔ Understand the purpose, benefits, and key components of progressive discipline

✔ Apply each step of the process fairly and consistently

✔ Avoid common pitfalls and prevent disparate treatment

✔ Adopt a coaching mindset that encourages employee success
