Sexual
harassment is one of the most complex human resource workplace
issues of our time. Its legal, moral, emotional and civil rights
implications have stirred many debates. Sometimes it isobvious
and easily defined. Other times it is complicated and illusive.
It can result form innocent action that is misinterpreted or
misunderstood. Or, it can result from deliberate, malicious,
and intentional behavior. It might be one unfortunate occurrence,
or it can be an ongoing pattern of negative sexual behavior.
Sexual harassment and individuals found at fault can be staggering.
Whatever
the case, organizations struggle to prevent sexual harassment
before it happens and address ii when it come it does. While
there is no "cookbook:" answer to prevent sexual harassment,
experts acknowledge that them most effective methods of prevention
include the following:
-
A well-written policy regarding sexual harassment that
is easily understood
- Regular
communication regarding the policy on sexual harassment
- Ensuring
that every employee knows sexual harassment will not be tolerated
- Providing
early and ongoing training to help employees recognize and
prevent inappropriate workplace behavior
- Taking
all complaints seriously and conducting thorough investigations
- Swift
and appropriate action for all violations

"I
would like to compliment JP Davis & Associates, Inc. on
their presentation of Sexual Harassment. Your sessions provided
our personnel with a concept of the meaning of "sexual
harassment", ways to avoid it, and methods to deal with
it. The program was informal enough to permit a relaxed atmosphere
to learn, but also formal enough to emphasize the importance
of the subject.
