Sexual Harassment, Discrimination, Bullying and Abuse: How to Avoid Inappropriate Workplace Behaviors

OVERVIEW

This one hour course is designed for all employees in your organization. It is intended to help employees learn how to behave appropriately in today’s workplace and the consequences of inappropriate workplace behavior.

It has become clear that complaints are being made and honored about behaviors that in the past had seemed “too mild” to worry about. Only egregious sexual misconduct was brought to the attention of those in charge. Not so anymore! Today, even the mildest form of harassment, discrimination in the workplace, bullying and abuse will be brought to the attention of those in charge, leading to loss of reputation, job, professional standing and money.
