May 21, 2024 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Harassment. It can be an ugly situation that not only impacts the victim but can also have a chilling effect on employee morale and productivity – and lead to hefty fines.
Unfortunately, most people don’t know what to do if they experience or witness it. Don’t let this often-stealthy issue invade and infect your financial institution. Attend this important annual training to learn more about developing (and following) effective anti-harassment policy and stop the problem dead in its tracks!
AFTER THIS WEBINAR YOU’LL BE ABLE TO:
- Distinguish between what is and is not considered harassment in the workplace
- Explore tools and techniques for improving poor employee behavior
- Understand how to manage a harassment complaint
- Identify scenarios which require an investigation
- Know when to bring in outside help
WEBINAR DETAILS
According to the EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), nearly 75% of employees who experience workplace harassment do not report it. Kind of shocking, isn’t it? The truth is, many folks still don’t understand exactly what is and isn’t considered workplace harassment. Moreover, even if they think they’re either experiencing it themselves or have witnessed the behavior, they don’t know what to do about it.
The result? Nothing good. From declining productivity and increased insurance costs, to potentially exponential fines and penalties, to significant reputational risk, the negative effects of not handling harassment are enormous. The remedy? Create great anti-harassment policies. Train everyone – even your volunteers - and then, follow your policy. Join HR professional Diane Reed for this required annual training that will prepare everyone on your staff (plus volunteers) to prevent harassment in your financial institution.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This informative session is perfect for your entire team. From managers to frontline employees to human resources staff, everyone in your organization needs to attend anti-harassment training annually.
