Do Corporations have a responsibility to train all disciplines which represent them? Or can they choose?

personnel training
Texas Professional asked:


If by law the discipline you are in has to be there for the corporation to legally exist in this industry, then aren’t they responsible for making sure all personnel are trained in what they have to do for that job in order to be successful? Or can they say it is a problem for those locally or regionally and just provide a generalized 40 hour orientation? Please note, No procedural training to be successful is provided.
It’s different in the HealthCare industry, A Doctor, RN, Social Worker, etc…. these fields require degrees and certifications. That is really straight forward. But say a discipline is required to meet a Federal and State standard, cna the company hire and not even train an individual in the paperwork process requirements to meet this standard. And if it has a 75 (+)% turnover rate due to lack of training and support when other disciplines are trained by the company…isn’t this discrimitory, that some get trained and others don’t to be successful?
