About the course
An often-difficult aspect of being a good
supervisor is knowing what to do when employee
injury or illness prevents them doing their
regular jobs. We designed this course to give
you the tools to be successful in this important
role.
First, let us introduce ourselves. Meet Dr.
Jennifer Christian (physician), Jon Coppelman
(Workers' Comp consultant and trainer), and
Frank Jackson (human resources executive and
lawyer). We are the authors of this course.
We have taught thousands of supervisors how
to manage employees who have just become ill
or injured, and want to share our insights
and techniques with you.
Many workdays now lost due to illness and
injury are not medically-required. In this
course, we'll help you to better understand
this situation and see opportunities for improvement.
We will show you how to:
- Respond
when an employee becomes sick or injured
and then manage the whole situation
- Keep
your people safe and productive at work
while saving your company money
- Be
a better communicator with members of
your team
- Build
the team spirit that is required for high
performance
- Deal
effectively with difficult situations
relating to attendance and performance
The course is delivered by Webility's on-line
training system, and takes most people about
60 minutes to complete, depending on their
reading speed. (You can do it in several sittings
if you prefer.) We know you have a lot to
do and really appreciate your making time
for this course. Our commitment is that this
course makes your job easier and makes you
more effective as a supervisor. Thank you
for spending your time with us on this important
topic! |
