Don’t Let #MeToo Happen to You Too: Keys to Safe-guarding Your Organization
Summary
#MeToo has employers and managers scrambling to find answers to complex questions. Employers need to understand the best way to not only protect their employees from being victimized by sexual harassment, but also how to protect themselves from sexual harassment complaints, how to properly handle a complaint, and if their current policies are adequate to address this issue.
