When Harry Sued Sally - HR and the Rise of Non-Traditional Discrimination Claims
A410
Tuesday 06/26/2012 02:15 PM - 03:30 PM
Workplace Application:
You will learn about the recent rise of non-traditional harassment claims and receive practical advice on how to limit your own legal exposure.
In recent years, companies and courthouses alike have been inundated with formerly rare complaints of reverse (female-on-male) sexual harassment, same-sex harassment, same-race harassment, and other non-traditional types of workplace discrimination. Employers are often caught off-guard when confronted by such claims, and make mistakes that result in an increased likelihood of liability should the claims proceed to court. In this session, you will learn of recent cases involving unusual claims, and receive practical guidance on how to avoid becoming the next salacious news story involving non-traditional harassment claims.
