Your handbook can't do its job if your leaders won't do theirs.

Toxic positivity may sound harmless, or it may sound like it has nothing to do with HR compliance.

Both are wrong.

When leaders nice their way around hard conversations with avoidance, small issues grow into policy violations, complaints, and investigations.

Here is the truth: honesty, professionalism, and candor are not the enemies of a positive culture. They are what build one!

Leave the toxic positivity behind and address the real issues head on.

Have you seen toxic positivity cause real problems at work?

Are your blind spots covered when it comes to employment laws and workplace policies?

Spot check for them regularly.

Ask yourself if the situations that take place in your workplace can be referenced and taken care of by referring to what is written in your handbook?

Are there any contradictions within your workplace and policies between application and what is written?

Are all department leaders handling and applying written policies the same, or does application look different based on the employee or the leader involved?

If so... these are your blind spots.

You've identified them.
Now the work begins!

Companies and their employees are using AI more and more in the workplace, but what policies are in place to protect the user and the business?

If your company is allowing AI to be used, the company should have policies informing the following:

✅approved AI platforms
✅approved AI use for work
✅authorized people to train and control AI use
✅restrictions on AI use

just to begin...

Many have not formed these policies. Contact your HR Compliance Partner to achieve AI governance for a safer workplace.

The interactive process doesn't begin with the employee requesting a reasonable accommodation, it begins once the employer knows the employee has a need for support.

Don't guess at ADA, FMLA or navigating employee accommodations, seek expert advisement. Avoid damage to your company, your reputation, and potential lawsuits.

Terminating on the exhaustion date without engaging in the interactive process is a common, and commonly litigated, mistake.
