EEOC Releases Guidance on Workplace Harassment Prevention
posted: Wednesday, December 13th
Agency Offers Recommendations for Employers
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission recently issued Promising Practices for Preventing Harassment, a guidance document that features harassment prevention recommendations for employers in four broad categories:
- Leadership and accountability;
- Harassment policies;
- Harassment complaint systems; and
- Harassment training.
Under each of the four categories, the guidance lists numerous actions employers can take, such as:
- Leadership and accountability;
- Harassment policies;
- Harassment complaint systems; and
- Harassment training.
The document states that while the practices it discusses are not legal requirements under federal employment discrimination laws, they may enhance compliance efforts.
