| Protect Your Business: Give Warning According to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, abusive lawsuits cost small businesses $88 billion a year. Disgruntled employees are one such cause of these lawsuits. But you can protect yourself with proactive measures and documentation. If an employee does something objectionable – for example, they are continually late, they fail to follow rules, etc., – a written warning can help correct the problem and also protect you against future legal action. | |
