Why Train on Retaliation?
Here are the
top five urgent reasons why organizations should be diligent in preventing retaliation:
- Retaliation is the fastest growing type of discrimination reported to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
- A Supreme Court decision in 2006 has made it significantly easier for employees to prove that they are victims of unlawful retaliation.
- Employees can win retaliation lawsuits, even if the original claim of discrimination, unsafe practices or unethical acts is dismissed.
- Failure to prevent retaliation may result in the loss of millions of dollars in fees and damages awarded in administrative proceedings or lawsuits.
- Merely the perception that retaliation is occurring can significantly disrupt the workplace and reduce productivity.
