Title: Essential Guide to Employment Issues for Church Boards [e-book]
Description: As a church board member, you need to be familiar with a number of personnel issues. In this guide, I'll address some of them, including the selection and screening of church workers, dispute resolution, terminations, discrimination, polygraph exams and the Family Medical Leave Act, minimum wage and overtime, and the inspection of employee computers. Unfamiliarity with these issues can expose your church to significant liability, so it's important for you to have some understanding of these essential employment issues. The content that follows was developed by Richard Hammar, an expert in church law and tax. He is the author of numerous books and has written extensively on employment law for churches, as well as many other topics related to tax, law, finance, and risk management. The material in this eBook has been adapted from its original source: 4-Hour Legal Training Program for Church Boards by James Cobble, Jr. and Richard Hammar. Feel free to use this guide separately, or as a companion to the 4-Hour Legal audio training. - Introduction.
