Subtle Sexual Harassment - Program 1

Subtle Sexual Harassment is intended to take the titillation out of sex harassment training and allow employees to go beyond the obvious cases most of us already recognize as wrong. In so doing, we open our eyes and minds to the more subtle aspects and impacts of our own behavior. Each program in Subtle Sexual Harassment includes several unusual dramatizations designed to help focus and stimulate discussion. There are 9 of these scenarios.

Program 1: "The Issue is Respect" tackles complex issues. What one employee may consider sexual harassment, another may find perfectly acceptable. Both men and women can be and are victims of hostile work environments and subtle Quid Pro Quo behavior. The standards by which such behavior is measured are changing. Attorneys, psychologists, human resource professionals and a troupe of exceptional actors take us through the legal, psychological, cultural and moral issues.
