Sexual Harassment is a critical problem impacting American businesses and organizations today. Organizations feel the impact of harassment in terms of turnover, absenteeism, loss of productivity, and lowered morale and motivation. At a time when U. S. organizations face a highly competitive global market, this loss of resources cannot be allowed and must be addressed. This program does that for you in a highly professional, serious and positive manner, which will result in your employees knowing and appreciating the commitment and support you, as their employer, have for them in this very sensitive area.
Preventing Sexual Harassment is a two to two and a half-hour program designed to define employers' and employees' rights, responsibilities and liabilities concerning sexual harassment in the work place. The participants will have a thorough understanding and be knowledgeable of the seriousness and importance of this subject through the information provided during the program. This information is learned through the training objectives by clarifying what sexual harassment is, reviewing your company's policies and procedures and informing your employees of their personal responsibility and potential liability.
Sexual Harassment is reviewed as a human, organizational and legal issue and examples both locally and nationally are discussed. The participants will learn about the various forms of sexual harassment and be introduced to the laws that support the fact that "it is against the law."
They also view a very powerful video, which shows various examples of sexual harassment and reminds them that it is a form of discrimination. Part of the program is dedicated to educating your employees about their responsibilities in preventing sexual harassment and a review of your company's policies and procedures if they are a victim of sexual harassment. PDC also provides guidelines for supervisors to follow to deal effectively with sexual harassment complaints. These guidelines may be customized to your company's present policies.
