Since current Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill introduced
America to the issue of sexual harassment, it has continually grown more complex
and perplexing. Issues that no one would have thought of in 1991 have moved to
the forefront and present new challenges to employers as the courts try to find
consensus on how we will define sexual harassment in the coming years. This
Webinar will introduce you to some of these new issues and present you with
strategies to help you avoid the legal fray that surrounds them.
- The keys to avoiding harassment claims: Policies, procedures, and training
- How to identify when you have a harassment issue that requires action
- Focus on sexual harassment:
- Defining the fine line between a consensual relationship and sexual
harassment and strategies you can use to lessen your liability risk
- Stretching the limits of sexual harassment: Gender nonconformity and the
courts' confusion about what it is
- The supervisor's peephole: Is it sexual harassment if the victim is
unaware of the harassment?
- What obligation do you have to respond when a male complains about
sexual language, magazines, and other behavior that denigrates women but is
limited to conduct between men?
