High Risk Termination Management

Back to Training

Preparing for and managing the termination of an employee, even in the best of cases, is a challenging, not to mention emotional, endeavor for every employer and human resource professional. Preparing for and managing the termination of a potentially violent or troublesome employee, or more specifically the employee who has expressed threats or exhibited violent tendencies or violence in the workplace will only exacerbate the challenges for the human resource professional. Many times, the concerns have been generated because of employee concerns regarding an “Employee’s behavior” or statements from co-workers to the effect that “This individual is the type of person who would show up one day at work with a gun,” or “I am afraid because of the individual’s outbursts, unacceptable behavior, and his/her potential to be violent.” The Lehigh Valley Paladin, LLC security personnel are professionals who are experienced in dealing with these potentially problematic terminations. We offer services to assist your department and your organization with these challenges: Advance Planning – preparing for the termination along with on-site management on the termination date and security considerations during and after the termination.
