SwCA Episode 075: Harassment free workplace?! The easy way to create one?!

SITE: http://www.courtneyanderson.com/swca-episode-075-hr-heroes-hangout-series-harassment-free-workplace-the-easy-way-to-create-one.html SHOW NOTES: Our HR HEROES HANGOUT™ series is dedicated to the unsung heroes that ensure that organizations achieve and sustain maximum human capital competitive advantage! In this episode our topic is, "Harassment free workplace?! The easy way to create one?!" HR is a glamorous and exciting field (it really is) where every single aspect of an organization is addressed. It deals with money (compensation, promotions, benefits, etc.), power (promotions, etc.) and respect (the concept of being valued). Our HR HEROES understand that they are not a peripheral ?administrative? entity but are instead the very heart of the organization! Is a workplace free from illegal harassment (in the USA based on gender, age over 40, race, color, religion, national origin, disability, veterans status, etc.) even possible? Is it a realistic goal for HR professionals, executives, managers and staff? Is harassment an issue in workplaces only in the USA? Or, is it a global issue (in Europe, Asia, North America, South America, etc.)? I address this international report in the show and encourage you to access it (http://www.jil.go.jp/english/reports/documents/jilpt-reports/no.12.pdf). We all deserve to be treated with respect in our workplaces no matter where we are on the planet! It is a reasonable (and I would argue) expected goal for our HR Heroes to ensure that everyone (from the most senior executive through the newest staff member, clients, customers, vendors, and members of the public) are free from harassment at their workplace. How is the goal of a harassment free workplace easily obtained? What steps are taken? What is required by the organizational leadership? Let's explore what this issue actually is and how our HR Heroes will take action to provide all of their constituencies are treated with respect (and without harassment)! © Courtney Anderson Enterprises LLC  CourtneyAnderson.com   [email protected]
