Introduction to Employment Laws and Concepts

by Evan Sampson Esq.

This course will serve as an introduction into employment laws that any dentist will encounter while operating his or her own office. The course will be structured around the five areas of employment law: (1) Wage and Hour Laws; (2) Anti-Discrimination Laws; (3) Laws Governing Workplace Health and Safety; (4) Employee Benefit Laws; and (5) Labor Relations Law. The course will touch on each stage of the employment relationship, from Hiring to On-Boarding to Termination. The course will provide tools to a dentist and his or her management staff to address problematic employment issues and resources to mitigate risk around employee disputes. 

Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:
  • Understand some of the major federal laws that govern employer-employee relationships in the United States

  • Implement best practices to on-board, discipline, and terminate employees
  • Understand common provisions in Employment Agreements
  • Understand key concepts concerning anti-discrimination and leave
