Harassment Is ... (Gov't Version)
Harassment represents one of the most destructive workplace
issues faced by public and private employers today. Now more
than ever, it's important to train all personnel to recognize
the various forms that harassment may take and implement measures
to prevent it in your organization!
In addition to sexual harassment there are liability issues
associated with harassment based on race, color, national
origin, religion, gender, disability, age and other characteristics
protected by law.
Harassment can take the form of jokes, negative stereotyping,
hostile acts or simple thoughtless comments, but the ultimate
outcome is the same. In addition to the costs associated with
legal liability, harassment has a profound negative effect
on individuals, inflicting emotional stress, lowering employee
morale and reducing productivity at work.
This new program will raise awareness regarding harassment
and explain the do's and don'ts of creating a respectful work
environment for everyone.
The program will help employees learn how to:
• Define harassment
• Identify the various types and forms of harassment
• Understand the negative impact of harassment
• Follow practical guidelines to prevent harassment
• Respond if they witness or become victims to harassment.
SYNOPSIS

(based on sex, age, race, disability, religion, and sexual
orientation) are presented by an on-camera host. He adds additional
content and insights to enhance the comprehension and retention
of this critical information. Clips of 'person on the street'
commentary add currency and relevance for the viewer.
