FIRE POWER
The Positive Approach To The Dilemma Faced By Every Employer & Employee

Fire Power by Brian A. Grosman sets out in an easily read format the positive approach to the dilemma faced by every employer and employee - that is how to handle a firing. He deals with the concept of reasonable notice and damages. He also talks about how to handle a firing and its impact on the employee. Employers and employees rights are considered in depth. As well, employment contracts are discussed and examples of contracts are set out. Brian Grosman also deals with trade secrets, non-compete and non-solicitation clauses, conflict of interest, and libel and slander in his discussion of corporate downsizing and the impact of dismissals on corporate loyalty and the future of employment.

Also included in the book:

• Techniques for avoiding and settling litigation in a cost efficient and humane way
• Who owns what a former employee knows?
• What is reasonable notice - typical settlements in wrongful dismissal actions
• Relocation counselling, financial planning and human resource counselling

"What is most important about this work is simply that no matter what side you are on, Grosman makes a telling plea for bringing about these separations in ways that are enlightened and, to a degree, at least, humane."
