Learning Objectives

  • To discuss the importance of executive support in maintaining a work environment that is free of harassment and discrimination.
  • To analyze how to educate management on identifying potential trouble spots.
  • To inspect that complaint made against executives are handled appropriately.
  • To explain the pitfalls of hiding behind employment contracts and arbitration agreements.
  • To analyze how to communicate and confirm a policy that includes “Zero Tolerance” from the top down.

Course Overview

If you think sexual harassment is no longer an issue in the workplace – think again. Sexual and other types of harassment are still a big issue. 

Tarana Burk founded the Me Too movement in 2006. It gained widespread attention in 2017. In 2017, Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey from the New York Times revealed in an article the misconduct of Harvey Weinstein accusing him of decades of sexually harassing dozens of women. This article resurrected the "Me Too" movement in which thousands of men and women have come forward with complaints about being harassed by their bosses. This movement can have dire consequences for your business. Harvey Weinstein was convicted of sexual assault and rape and sentenced to 23 years in prison. He is now on trial in Los Angeles for the same types of offenses. 

In 2018, Kantor and Twohey co-wrote a book entitled She Says. The book has been made into a movie and will be released in November 2022.

Key topics covered in this CPE Business Management Webinar:

  • Ensuring Your Harassment Policy is Stated Correctly
  • Does Your Complaint Procedure Work the Way it is Intended
  • Making Sure Your “Zero Tolerance” Policy is More than Just Words on a Piece of Paper
  • Stepping Up Your Training To Include Top Executives
  • Conducting Investigations of Allegations of Inappropriate Behavior on the Part of Top Executives
  • Knowing Which States Ban Non-Disclosure Agreements for Sexual Harassment Settlements

If you are concerned about the well-being of your employees and the potential for negative publicity regarding your organization, you should attend this CPE webinar.

All employees have the right to work in a harassment-free environment. Executives of the company must take the lead in ensuring employees are protected from harassment and discrimination. 

The “#Me Too” movement had some serious legal and public relations implications for your business.  Taking the necessary action now to ensure your workplace is free of harassment and discrimination will also ensure your organization is viewed as a great place to work and free of negative publicity.

The course was very relevant. You should increase the time to 2 hours. Instructor is very good, but needs to not use the term "okay". However, I feel like this was due to a lot of material squeezed into a short time. An extra 30 minutes would have made a big difference
