What are the legal, privacy and ethical considerations that come into play?
Workplace mental health is increasing in prevalence and profile. When dealing with an employee who is experiencing mental health issues, HR professionals need to take into account various legal, privacy and ethical considerations that come into play.
A panel of legal experts will be discussing this complex topic at HRD’s Employment Law Masterclass, which is being held in three cities across New Zealand this year.
Designed for HR managers, the program will cover how to handle disciplinary procedures when mental health issues contribute to an employee’s misconduct; the adjustments employees legally need to make; privacy considerations when handling workplace mental health issues and how WorkSafe and the Employment Court are interpreting workplace mental health and psychiatric injury.
More information about the program is available here.
