Preventing Harassment in the Workplace on-demand Webinar

If you were unable to join us for the live webinar session – no worries!   MSU’s School of Labor and Industrial Relations is offering the on-demand webinar:   Preventing Harassment in the Workplace.

This on-demand webinar will deliver the same materials and audio presented during the live session and also includes the original eGuidebook, a handy resource for you to refer back to again and again.

Explore harassment in the workplace that could violate federal non-discrimination laws, including laws prohibiting sexual harassment and retaliation for engaging in protected activities.  To address harassment appropriately, an employer must be able to recognize it, so examples of what is and what isn’t illegal harassment are provided.  To avoid liability, employers must also know how to respond to harassing behavior, by either a supervisor or a coworker.  Specific steps for an effective investigation of harassment and suggestions for appropriate responses are provided.  Training is essential, and this on-demand webinar will give the tools to establish an effective training for supervisors and managers to address harassment and keep it from happening in the future.
