Building Effective Sexual Harassment Prevention Policies and Training
There’s no place for sexual harassment in today’s workplace, and employers have a responsibility to investigate every allegation. But reacting after a complaint is made doesn’t fix a culture that allows sexual harassment to occur. A proactive approach, incorporating a strong policy, backed by training and commitment at all levels, is key to building an organizational culture that discourages sexual harassment.
Join Philip Miles, employment lawyer, McQuaide Blasko, as he outlines the steps for building policies and training plans to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
