Intended Audience: Intermediate

In April 2024, EEOC issued workplace-altering guidelines for harassment prevention. Have you adapted?!? Given EEOC's Guidance and current realities, we are seeing a massive proliferation in workplace harassment complaints. HR must be ready! Along with your organization's leaders and managers, HR is the key both to the prevention of inappropriate behavior that undermines these goals and to the correction when such behavior occurs. In addition to discussing the traps into which HR and leadership fall regarding their own conduct, this fast=paced and super-practical session focuses on the affirmative responsibilities of HR and managerial employees, addressing not only sexual but also racial, ethnic and other forms of unlawful harassment.

Learning Outcome 1: Understand how to minimize harassment issues from arising inside your workplace.

Learning Outcome 3: Identify common areas for exploitation of employees seeking to bring claims against your organization and discuss steps HR and leadership can take to narrow or close those gaps.

Learning Outcome 2: Analyze the affirmative responsibilities of HR professionals and managers regarding workplace harassment.
