Harassment: A New Look, Industrial Version
Run time: 21 Minutes
New forms of harassment are not necessarily covered by Title VII, but they are the recent and pervasive manifestations of harassment and hostile environments. Unlike the conventional types of harassment, these recent forms can be much more devastating because they have a greater prevalence within organizations. Workplace bullying in itself is already "four times more common than harassment (based on illegal discrimination)", according to the Workplace Bullying Institute (WBI).
Harassment: A New Look, Industrial Version will help employees and managers recognize and avoid these new forms of harassment. In this program, a diverse group of employees and their clients engage in an illuminating discussion, using their personal experiences to show concrete examples and the destructive impact of workplace bullying, joking, intimidation, cyber-bullying, sex-ting, discrimination against younger employees by their older colleagues, and more.
Using a storyline approach in various industrial settings including, but not limited to Construction, Oil & Gas, Manufacturing and more, to help learners relate, identify, avoid and circumvent harassment in the workplace. This program examines newer forms of harassment -- such as bullying, third party harassment and digital harassment -- which assists in raising awareness and shows how to prevent them.
This program also reviews traditional types of harassment, such as sexual, racial and gender, and also reviews basic concepts -- quid pro quo, hostile work environment, reasonable person standard, how employees can and should respond to harassment -- and relates them to the more recent types of harassment.
