SHRMA Presents:
Create A Respectful Workplace (And Stop Illegal Harassment & Discrimination)
Presented by: Jennifer Bouman-Steagall
Overview:
Human Resource professionals and managers at all levels are responsible for managing an ever-changing and increasingly diverse workforce whose members represent a variety of cultures, backgrounds, and social experiences. Ensuring that the workplace is discrimination and harassment-free not only reduces the risk of liability, but also maximizes the productivity and engagement levels of your employees. In this informative program, we discuss an organization’s legal responsibility to prevent and correct harassment and discrimination, as well as where an organization can or should draw the line between appropriate and inappropriate behavior in the workplace.
Attendees will work through scenarios designed to identify the boundaries between acceptable and unacceptable behavior in the workplace. Attendees will also learn useful tips to recognize and respond to complaints of harassment, discrimination and retaliation, as well as steps to take to prevent these types of destructive behaviors in the future.
