Creating a respectful, inclusive, and harassment-free workplace requires more than compliance; it demands cultural change, proactive communication, and shared responsibility. This program equips participants with the knowledge, tools, and confidence to recognize, prevent, and respond to harassment in all its forms. Through a blend of lecture, group discussion, and interactive workshop activities, learners will explore the roots of workplace harassment, understand the legal and cultural landscape, and develop practical strategies to foster a safe and professional environment. This workshop can be customized to fit any organization’s unique needs and meet any individual state compliance standards.
Learners Will:
- Identify behaviors that constitute harassment, discrimination, bullying, and abusive conduct and understand the role of intention, perception, and impact in workplace interactions
- Learn about federal, state, and local enforcement agencies and applicable laws
- Explore communication tactics that promote a respectful and inclusive workplace culture and practice bystander intervention techniques to safely and effectively address inappropriate behavior
- Understand protections against retaliation and the rights of those who report or witness harassment
- Examine corporate and managerial responsibilities, including individual liabilities
- Address specific organizational challenges (as directed) and develop tailored strategies for resolution
Why This Matters:
Workplace harassment undermines trust, morale, and performance. Organizations that actively prevent and address harassment not only comply with legal standards but also build stronger, more resilient cultures.
