Next Date:October 30, 20251:00 pm EDT - 3:00 pm EDT
ONLINE CLASS: Focuses on Harassment in the Workplace and how to address the problem.
Harassment doesn’t have to be of a sexual nature – it can include offensive remarks about a person’s gender. For example, anyone could be guilty of harassing another if offensive comments are made about certain group in general. Simple teasing or offhand comments might not be illegal, but harassment is illegal when it creates a hostile or offensive work environment.

- Types of Harassment: Verbal, Non-Verbal, Physical, Psychological (teasing and offhand comments).
- Creating a happy work environment free from hostility and discomfort.
- Reporting: What to do when employees witness or experience harassment.
- Responding: How managers can identify and respond to prohibited conduct.
Attendees will be able to:
- Identify the signs of Harassment and take steps to prevent it,
- Follow a legal and ethical protocol in responding and reporting it when it is perceived to occur,
- Involve the correct individuals in being made aware of the occurrence, and
- Respond appropriately to the situation after it occurs.
