Manufacturers and other employers often face difficult situations involving employee wellbeing, workplace safety, and maintaining a productive workforce. Supervisors are frequently the first to encounter these challenges and must balance compassion for employees with the responsibility to protect the workplace and the organization.
This session brings together experts from industry and community organizations to discuss practical approaches employers can use when navigating complex employee situations. Participants will gain insight into recognizing and responding to challenging workplace circumstances, supporting employees in accessing community resources, and exploring options that help employees remain productive members of the workforce.
The program will include perspectives from GENEDGE, community support organizations, and workforce development professionals. Together they will highlight approaches that allow employers to respond appropriately, protect their organizations, and connect employees with resources that may help them overcome personal challenges while remaining engaged in the workforce.
This event will be held at the Pulaski Innovation Center on Thursday, May 21 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM.
More details will be coming in the near future.
