According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), harassment is unwelcome conduct that is based on race, color, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. It can come in a variety of forms, such as the following:
Hostile work environment
Offensive statements
Pictures
Insults
Intimidation
Assault
Prevention can be an effective way to help eliminate these behaviors in the workplace. Employers should create a workplace climate where these kinds of concerns can be raised and addressed. For this assignment, please create a training that will be provided to all employees to help prevent harassment in the workplace. The training should include the following sections:
A company anti-harassment and anti-discrimination policy statement based on relevant employment laws
A set of employee expectations regarding professional workplace behavior
A step-by-step guide for employees on how to report workplace harassment or discrimination
A guide for managers on how to address workplace harassment or discrimination claims
