July Brief Focus

The decisions HR may need to revisit before fall planning.

The Mid-Year HR Risk Check is organized around a familiar workplace sequence: a manager hears something, makes a first response, creates a record, and HR later has to decide what to do with it.

July 29 · 60 minutes · live virtual A practical checkpoint before fall decisions lock in.

Participants receive HRCI/SHRM/CLE credit for attendance. Final access and credit details are sent after registration.

What the Brief follows From first signal to next-step judgment.
01
A manager hears a concern

A leave issue, complaint, accommodation signal, performance problem, or informal comment reaches a supervisor first.

02
The first response shapes the record

Wording, timing, notes, tone, and escalation choices can help, confuse, or complicate later review.

03
HR inherits the next decision

HR may need to review facts, repair confusion, guide managers, document carefully, or involve counsel.

04
The July Brief gives teams a practical check

Participants leave with steadier ways to spot risk and respond before fall schedules, reviews, and staffing moves harden.

What participants leave with

A practical lens for spotting risk earlier, responding more carefully, and knowing when to involve HR or counsel.

01

A clearer first response

02

Better issue spotting

03

A next-step framework

When to document, when to pause, when to escalate, and when a deeper training path may be appropriate.

Participant results

Practical employment law guidance people can use at work.

IAML programs are taught by practicing attorneys who connect legal developments to the workplace decisions HR, employee relations, and compliance teams face every day.

“The class was very useful to me, I was able to take what I learned and apply it back at my job. A lot of times training seminars only cover the basics – this seminar really got down to the detail of things which was great.”
