Retaliation: Straight-Talk Compliance Solutions for Managers and Supervisors

Retaliation claims have more than doubled during the past decade. In fact, they now comprise more than 30% of the total EEOC charges filed. The reason: Retaliation law has become so broad that nearly any action a manager takes could be seen as an adverse action … and that opens your organization up to legal risk.

Help Supervisors Avoid Mistakes That Lead to Retaliation Lawsuits

You might be thinking, “My managers aren’t the kind of people who retaliate or try to ‘get even’ with employees.” That misses the point. What matters isn’t what managers intended when they took an adverse action against an employee. What matters is how the employee – and ultimately the jury – perceived the action.

The bad news is that retaliation law has become so broad that nearly anything your managers or supervisors do that changes someone’s working conditions might qualify. That’s why it’s so important for every manager – from seasoned managers to rookie supervisors – to understand this new legal minefield.

In this 35-min training program, you’ll see the important role your supervisors play in protecting the company against costly, distracting, morale-sapping legal battles.

Viewers will learn:

• The three key legal issues involved in a retaliation claim: Protected status, Adverse Action and Causality
• Which activities or complaints are protected by law – and which are not
• How a landmark Supreme Court decision broadened the definition of “adverse action” and increased the likelihood that you could provoke a retaliation lawsuit
• 9 management practices that supervisors must adopt to prevent retaliation claims
• 7 routine management actions that could trigger a retaliation lawsuit – and how to make sure they don’t

At the end of this program, your team will understand how to avoid saying and doing the things that spark retaliation lawsuits.
