A hostile work environment may be illegal, but it also can be a symptom of a much larger problem -- lack of respect in the workplace. This program starts with the minimum requirements of the law, and your organization's policy and procedure prohibiting harassment on the basis of sex, race, age, religion, national orientation, disability and sexual orientation. Going beyond the minimum, we bring in your organizational values, as well as the values of the participants, to begin the process of creating a respectful workplace.
"The knowledge of case laws, history, and practical application of this subject are the best I've experienced. Can't be missed!"
