Planning and preparation are key elements to mitigating these types of risks.
Attendee Takeaways:
1. Identify and understand the threat of workplace violence
2. Identify best business practices

Municipal special event programming requires partnerships between the public and private sectors. They require extensive planning for mass gatherings involving municipal infrastructure and services. Festivals, road races, parades, competitions and fireworks each have their own specific exposures and opportunities for partnership. Let's talk about the generalities and specifics of the risks associated with each individually and collectively. What often makes a special event unique and popular may also create unknown hazards for health and safety. Special events should be embraced when properly planned for and scheduled with our community partners. Let's make our special events safe and special by sharing ideas and concerns.

Background Screening: Why You’re at Risk
Location: Virtual
Today’s workplace is becoming more inclusive, diverse and accommodating. A one-size-fits-all approach fails to account for individual differences and specific needs. By increasing the adjustability in the office, employees can move toward the goals of creating a healthy, productive and ideal work environment.
Do you know what information you’re really receiving when you run a background check? Do you depend on a screening firm who tells you “you’re getting it all” (whatever ‘all’ is)? Most employers are somewhat familiar with “running packages” but haven’t been told exactly what records and data sources those “packages” or reports are searching, let alone how often the record sources are updated. Unfortunately for the employer, this information is critical to receiving a “comprehensive” and compliant background check. This webinar covers criminal record data, where it comes from, how accurate it really is, how often it’s updated, automation in county and national reports, state reports (when & where to run them), federal reports (yes, they’re required for the banking industry!) and much more! A must attend session for HR professionals of all levels.
Attendee Takeaways:
1. Learn how data is received, compiled and reported and the difference in sources (“fluff” data vs. usable data)
2. Learn which background screening reports you really need and the risks associated with running each. This includes what creates a “comprehensive” report and how that can vary by state
3. Learn about “automated date” and its associated risks
