There
has been an explosion of sexual harassment allegations in both the press
and in complaints to employers. Harassment is certainly not new. Yet, now
there is a new environment, new support and motivation to come forth. New
laws and regulations are coming, all aimed toward reducing incidents of
workplace harassment and bullying, encouraging employees to come forward,
and protecting both alleged victims and witnesses from possible
“retaliation” by employers. Employers who do not have up-to-date anti-harassment
and bullying policies and effective procedures which implement those
policies are at risk, both from the Courts and in the “Court of Public
Opinion.”
Good
policies prevent problems. Poorly designed policies can be worse than none,
and may themselves result in discrimination cases and other liability.
Bob’s
presentation covers the necessary ingredients of an effective harassment
policy. A policy must go beyond paper. This program gives practical advice
on implementing the policy. Perhaps more important, there are illustrations
of what to include and what not to include in your harassment policy and
procedures.
