Labour law and basic personnel management

About the course

The Working Environment Act has clear guidelines for handling conflicts and dismissals. Yet it's easy to make mistakes. Managers' lack of knowledge of labour law and the rules of the game means that many labour disputes end up in court. Such litigation leads to loss of reputation and negative financial consequences for the company.

Norsk Interaktiv has developed an interactive e-learning course that will strengthen your expertise in labour law. The aim of the course is to give you, as a manager, confidence in the processes and frameworks that apply in the workplace. The course explains why it's important to follow the regulations should a dispute end up in court, and how you can prevent the escalation of a conflict. The course will help you to protect your employees and your company's interests in an even better way in the future.

Here are some of the topics in the course:

• What is labour law?
• Good dialogue
• Clear feedback
• Written documentation
• Written warning
• Trial period
• Reasons for discontinuation
• Discussion meeting
• Cancellation
• Change cancellation
• Negotiations
• Severance agreement
• Normal working hours
• Extended working hours
• Overtime
• Night work

The course content is communicated through engaging animations. The visual presentations clarify and reinforce the communication of the learning material. With the help of "visual pegs", the content is better understood and remembered. Audiovisuals communicate to multiple senses simultaneously and present the course content effectively. We have used humour where relevant. "Playing on emotions" is a good pedagogical approach that provides good learning. Throughout the course, participants are given assignments and tested on what they have learnt.

By inspiring managers to look after their employees and the company's interests in the best possible way, this course will prevent financial losses and promote the working environment.
