Human Resources is a big term that encompasses everything school districts do in their interactions with current, prospective and even former employees. Having consistent, effective and legally compliant protocols to address all aspects of human resources is critical for all school districts. This episode will review some of the common legal issues that arise when HR protocols break down, provide tips for sound protocols related to recruitment hiring, onboarding, ongoing staff support, staff accountability, and addressing reference checks for former employees, and offer strategies for assessing your school district’s strengths and weaknesses and putting in place a process for continuous review and improvement.
