SEXUAL HARASSMENT

Sexual Harassment is illegal and could cause the supervisor and the dispatch center to defend themselves in a court of law. However, these legal pitfalls can be avoided by training both supervisors and managers.

This 1-day workshop is designed to provide the new or experienced dispatch supervisor with the level of knowledge needed to deal with sexual harassment in the communications center. The course covers a variety of issues:

• What is sexual harassment

• Quid pro Quo

• Hostile work environments

• Verbal sexual harassment

• Physical sexual harassment

• Liability

• Retaliation issues
