Training & Litigation Prevention

RGD Workplace Consulting designs and conducts training programs to prevent and eliminate workplace-based complaints and litigation, as well as foster a culture of accountability. Our programs ensure that clients comply with mandatory laws in certain states and also obtain a significant advantage in other states as a means of defending harassment claims. The programs are delivered by employment law attorneys and include employment law topics such as workplace harassment and Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The programs are specialized for executives, managers, staff and individuals.

Our customized training courses are highly interactive and engaging with role plays, videos, live actors, powerpoint and other cutting edge teaching methods. We also use small group discussion, stories, case studies and drafting exercises. Sessions generally run from two to four hours. Listed below are some examples of RGD Workplace Consulting's training programs.
