Description

Termination Basics: How to Fire Your “Bob”
We’ve all hired a Bob.
You know the type. Shows up late. Creates drama. Doesn’t follow policies. Is terrible at their job.
And somehow… still sticks around.
If you’re holding on to a Bob (or worried you’ll hire one again), this Webinar is for you.
Join RascalHR for a practical, no-nonsense session on how to handle terminations the right way — legally, ethically, and confidently.

Workshop Details
In this workshop, you’ll learn:
● Why every company ends up with a “Bob”
● Employment law basics: types of terminations and why they matter
● What to have in place before you ever consider terminating someone
● How to terminate without cause (and avoid costly mistakes)
● When and how to terminate with cause (and why it’s rarely your best option)
● The essential termination checklist you need to protect your business
● Q&A
You’ll walk away with:
● A clear understanding of your legal responsibilities
● A practical checklist you can use immediately
● Confidence to have the tough conversations — without hesitation
● Tools to protect your team, culture, and company from risk
This isn’t just theory — it’s the real-world HR and leadership guidance you wish you had before
your last bad hire.
And yes… Bob’s not invited

Technical Requirements

  1. Computer or laptop

  • Windows 10 or Mac iOS  

  1. Internet connection - For best results, you will want to ensure you have an internet connection with an upload/download speed of 3-5 Mbps. You can test your internet speed here.
