The Employment Law Manual

A Practical Guide for Business Owners, Managers, and Executives

A landmark resource for executives, managers, and business owners on mastering employment law

The first of its kind, this comprehensive guide is a roadmap for navigating employment law complexities while building stronger, more productive workplaces. Drawing from his four decades of frontline experience defending companies in employment litigation, Gerald L. Maatman, Jr. follows the chronological sequence of employment relationships – from hiring to firing, and everything in between – providing actionable strategies that have been stress-tested in courtrooms across America.

Not stopping there, Maatman reveals the hidden dynamics of how judges and juries evaluate personnel decisions, sharing insights gleaned from winning and losing court cases, teaching trial advocacy, and hearing directly from jurors about what influences their verdicts. Readers will learn how to:

• Implement effective hiring practices and conduct fair terminations
• Handle difficult employees and prevent sexual harassment problems
• Manage documentation requirements and structure personnel policies that protect both companies and workers

The Employment Law Manual: A Practical Guide for Business Owners, Managers, and Executives is an essential practical toolkit that enables business leaders to make confident personnel decisions while minimizing legal exposure and create workplaces characterized by trust, fairness, and mutual respect that foster both productivity and legal protection.
