Preventing Harassment Claims and Avoiding Agency Liability:
Guidance from the EEOC
Dexter Brooks, Federal Training & Outreach Coordinator, EEOC Office of Federal Operations

Discriminatory harassment continues to be a significant problem in the federal workplace. And with an endless number of circumstances and potential liabilities based on race, color, national origin, disability, age, sex and religion — it’s no wonder avoiding harassment claims can seem elusive.

Get guidance straight from an EEOC representative on how you
can prevent and combat harassment in your agency.

Through real-life scenarios, Mr. Brooks will equip you to handle harassment in your agency. You’ll learn essential details, including:

            •    How to design the corrective action to end the harassment and
                 prevent it from recurring

            •   Steps to ensure a prompt, thorough and impartial investigation

            •   Elements that should be addressed in your anti-harassment policy

            •   Factors that help

What’s more, you’ll have an opportunity to ask Mr. Brooks specific questions about what you should be doing to prevent harassment claims and limit your agency’s liability. Don’t miss your chance to question an EEOC representative directly about your concerns.
