Product Description

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has been busy this year. On April 29, 2024, the EEOC issued Enforcement Guidance on Harassment in the Workplace, which sets forth the EEOC’s position on harassment that constitutes unlawful discrimination under Title VII. As the first EEOC guidance updating anti-harassment guidelines since 1999, the Guidance incorporates expansions in both how we work (contemplating how harassment and hostile work environments might extend to remote environments) and in what constitutes harassment (recognizing, for example, harassment based on gender identity, color, abortion or contraception decisions, and lactation).

This program provides an overview of the new EEOC guidance and regulations and features practical analysis of their requirements from an expert panel of employment lawyers from a variety of backgrounds. Panelists give their perspective on the law and discuss what employers should be doing to prepare. Whether you represent workers or employers, the program helps you make sense of the new guidance and understand how it alters employer obligations regarding workplace harassment under federal law.
