How to Identify and Prevent Harassment

Save your company from unnecessary problems

Sex sells. That’s why you immediately thought of sexual harassment when you read the headline. Sexual harassment is, by far, the bigger part of harassment lawsuits but it’s not the only piece.

This month’s topic will show you what is considered harassment and how to recognize it. Often sexual harassment is frequently misunderstood and usually mishandled. This webinar will show you how to prevent the errors many companies make once they receive a claim.

The federal government declared harassment to be illegal years ago. A few years ago California took it one step further and created a law mandating supervisory training in companies of a certain size. However, mandated or not, training of both your employees and supervisors is critical to your company’s future.

Our interactive April webinar will cover:

• Understand the government’s stand on harassment vs. discrimination.
• Learn the different types of harassment (hint: sex isn’t always involved).
• Discover how to identify the less obvious signs of harassment.
• How to make sure your training covers all the bases.
• What steps to take if your company gets a claim.

Please be prepared to join in by offering opinions and asking questions!

Space is limited.

NOTE: New to webinars? It's a great way to participate in a seminar ... you'll see our presentation on your computer and call in to hear the audio. Once you register, you'll receive an email with instructions. We use "Go To Webinars" software and first-time participants will have to download a small file. It's all automatic but give yourself 10-15 minutes prior to the start of the webinar for the download and to make sure it works okay. Also, talk to your IT people before any download to maintain your company's security.
