Description
Sexual harassment is a term of art that while easy to allege, isn’t always easy to prove. However, just because something may not rise to the level of Title VII sexual harassment, doesn’t mean it’s not inappropriate or that it should be tolerated in the workplace.
FELTG President Deborah Hopkins, attorney at law, will explain how to respond to an employee who engages in inappropriate conduct, whether or not a complaint of sexual harassment is filed or proven.
Summing this class up in five words: Do not wait to discipline. Ms. Hopkins will discuss the foundational law on discipline, share recent related case law, and explain how agencies have been removing supervisors for decades over inappropriate language and conduct.
Learning objectives
- Avoid the mistakes that derail conduct-based actions.
- Recognize and respond immediately to inappropriate conduct.
- Differentiate between approaches for supervisor and co-worker misconduct.
This training event will include time for Q & A on these topics.
