Preventing Sexual Harassment and Other Workplace Harassment: A Fact Sheet for Employees, 2011 Edition enables employers to meet their EEOC obligations and communicate their policies and complaint procedures regarding harassment in the workplace. It emphasizes personal responsibility in dealing with potential or actual workplace harassment by supervisors or co-workers.

The 2011 Edition includes case descriptions of the latest developments, including Cross v. Prairie Meadows, where the claim lost for failure to use identified avenues of complaint; EEOC v. Prospect Airport Servs., where the court decided that the sexual proposition of a male employee by a female co-worker can be harassment; Hatmaker v. Memorial Med. Ctr., where it was decided that not all complaining activity, including lying, is protected; and Vera v. McHugh, where the court decided that excessive staring can be harassment.

The 8-1/2″ x 11″ Fact Sheet unfolds to 17″ x 22″ and is a simple, convenient, and cost-effective way for employers to provide their employees with important facts about workplace harassment. The Fact Sheet can be a supplement to an organization's antiharassment policy, a resource for training programs, or used to stimulate dialogue among employees. It can be included in company handbooks, enclosed in paycheck envelopes and newsletters, distributed at orientations and staff meetings, and displayed as a handout in human resource departments. BNA offers to customize the Fact Sheet with a company name, logo, and/or a message printed on the cover, for a small fee.

The 2011 Edition of Preventing Sexual Harassment and Other Workplace Harassment: A Fact Sheet for Employees was prepared by David D. Kadue, a partner in Seyfarth Shaw, Los Angeles, CA. He is also a co-author of the BNA treatises Sexual Harassment in Employment Law and Age Discrimination in Employment Law.
