Harassment & Discrimination Liabilities

The issue of sexual harassment is one that touches all organizations and its relevance to corporations extends beyond the concerns associated with more traditional settings.  Sexual harassment is as common to the private sector as to any other organization in America, and the laws regarding how it should be regarded and dealt with apply to private sector workplaces as much as to criminal justice agencies.   Awareness of the law and the consequences for disregarding it are the cornerstone elements that will guide human resource managers in effectively carrying out their responsibilities and avoiding liabilities for the departments and organizations they are responsible for.

This training course will cover:

• Identify and describe forms of sexual harassment, and give examples.
• Outline the organization's grievance procedure
• Explain how to use it, and discuss the importance of doing so.
• Discuss the penalty for violating the policy.
• Emphasize the need for a workplace free of harassment, offensive conduct, intimidation, or other forms of discrimination.
