Sexual Harassment: A Management Briefing
The informative "Sexual Harassment: A Management Briefing" training video dramatically demonstrates how incidents of sexual harassment – including poorly handled or unresolved complaints – can translate into liability exposure and staggering monitory losses to the organization as well as to individual mangers who fail to take immediate action.
Legal experts provide concise definitions of various forms of harassment and offer direction on “grey areas” such as office romances or off site events. To help resolve third party harassment by clients, vendors or business associates the video models a non-confrontational approach to resolving the issue.
In the event of a complaint the video details the appropriate steps to take including suggested questions to be asked of the complainant and alleged harasser.
