The question posed to the group in the video is this: Audience Submitted Question: "Are proper punctuation, grammar, and spelling important when it comes to writing a formal performance evaluation? Do Jurors care?"
VIEWING NOTE: There were image and sound problems with the camera that focused on Darin, so until the editors fix him up, we begin each video after Darin posed the question to the group.

About the free videos...
In 2006, our own Darin Hanks moderated a roundtable discussion at the third annual Labor and Employment Law Advanced Practices Symposium (LEAP). Participating in the discussion were several attorneys and experts in employment and labor practice.
We will be editing the footage for sale in a DVD to be released at a later date, but in the meantime, we are offering cuts of this discussion FREE OF CHARGE by way of the web.
Most of the video clips are related to employee performance management; with a few on diversity and respect in the workplace.
The most common categories used when measuring employee performance are: Job Knowledge, Customer Service, Productivity, and Quality of Work. Are there any categories that you do not like to see on a performance evaluation?
Audience Submitted Question: Are proper punctuation, grammar, and spelling important when it comes to writing a formal performance evaluation? Do Jurors care?
Audience Submitted Question: Let’s say an employee has been written up; they have been given 60 days to improve a particular area of performance or attendance. Their formal evaluation is due before the 60 days is over; should the formal review be delayed until the employee has satisfactorily completed the corrective review?
Audience Submitted Question: "Where I work, I am required to go to diversity classes and respect training; but I'm uncomfortable with all this sexual preference discussion in the workplace."
Audience Submitted Question: "I am a Christian. I am not disrespectful. I do not make jokes or say mean things about anyone. The Bible teaches me to love and to be respectful and I have no problem with the whole respect thing. But more and more I feel as if I am being asked to celebrate or embrace alternate lifestyles. Do you realize that this is a spiritual matter for me and not a performance thing?"
