New Micro-Learning! Regardless of your position, title or level in the organization, it is your job—and the job of every employee—to help create a professional workplace by demonstrating appropriate behavior. When it comes to telling jokes, there's a fine line between funny and disrespectful. We can't always know what may be offensive just by looking at someone.

New Micro-Learning! Over the last 30 years or so, we've paid a lot of attention to overcoming the past exclusion of women and minorities in the workplace. But we don't give a lot of thought as to how those changes have affected white men. It's easy to see how the focus on minorities and women has caused many white men to worry about discrimination. And sometimes those concerns were justified by inappropriate actions taken to meet hiring goals.

New Micro-Learning! We all have different experiences and backgrounds, and we may have different views on what is acceptable behavior. But failing to treat people with respect and professionalism, when due to a protected status, can easily lead to charges of discrimination or harassment. This course takes a look at how sabotaging someone’s ability to do his or her job can lead to an adverse employment action.

New Micro-Learning! It’s one thing to casually invite someone to attend religious services with you, or to occasionally mention a religious belief or practice. But when you repeatedly and openly talk about your religious beliefs, or proselytize, to the point that it offends a co-worker, you can be accused of harassment. And when a supervisor is the one talking about religion in the workplace, employees may believe that religion discriminatorily effected employment decisions.

New Micro-Learning! This course explores the topic of gender identity in the workplace. There are a variety of Federal, state and local laws that expressly protect workers based on their gender identity and sexual orientation. Most employers are covered by one or more of these laws.

Insensitive remarks about an overweight co-worker can lead to the perception of harassment. Discussions with co-workers that ridicule or disrespect anyone because of a protected class status can be offensive and lead to an accusation of discriminatory harassment.

New Micro-Learning! Confronting someone who isn't flexible can feel exasperating. That's why it is so important to recover and go on; regain a positive attitude, and then find ways to keep things moving. One of the best ways to do this is to follow through on your commitment to help others improve their attitude. Encourage them even when we see the slightest change for the better. A little encouragement can go a long way!

New Micro-Learning! This course takes a look at how the First Amendment Free Speech Right applies differently at work than in public. You will observe the reactions among coworkers when one of them starts playing music that the others find offensive. As you work through the course, ask yourself, could a conversation like this impact the employees ability to work together?

New Micro-Learning! Taking employment actions that you believe are in the employee’s “best interests” – also called misplaced paternalism – can be viewed as discrimination if they are based on stereotypes about a disability, or sex, or any other characteristic protected by law.

New Micro-Learning! Managers should always be professional, be even-handed, and above all, be consistent. Now obviously, employees aren't machines. And part of being a good manager is being able to tailor your management style to the unique needs of individuals. But when it comes to progressive discipline, making exceptions or applying different standards is a great way to end up telling your story to a judge.

New Micro-Learning! Most people don’t intentionally come to work with a bad or difficult attitude. The problem is a lot of people don’t understand - or they forget - how our attitudes affect the people around us. When these situations do arise, all it really takes is a gentle reminder that what they're doing has an impact on the rest of us.

New Micro-Learning! Many court cases for wrongful employment termination stem from mishandled progressive discipline. In this course, we will examine the issue of avoiding termination.

New Micro-Learning! It's important to know that the First Amendment right to free speech is not unlimited or does not outweigh the organization’s right to maintain a workplace free from discrimination and harassment. In this course, you'll learn about prohibited behavior in the workplace - as an employee exercises what he sees as his right to free speech.

Human trafficking is very real issue in the United States! Traffickers often take advantage of the privacy and anonymity accessible through the hospitality industry. Hotels and motels can be especially attractive locations for all forms of trafficking.

New Micro-Learning! Making employment decisions such as promotions and reporting relationships, because you think an employee is too old can get you and the organization into a lot of trouble. This might lead to an adverse employee action. Age is a protected class under federal law.

New Micro-Learning! Stereotypes are over-generalized beliefs about a particular category of people. Stereotypes are generalized because one assumes that the stereotype is true for each individual person in the category. Everyone within an organization has a responsibility to ensure that the work culture promotes a professional work environment by demonstrating appropriate behavior.

New Micro-Learning! We can't make someone change his or her attitude. But we can choose how we react. That's why the solution starts with us. We owe it to ourselves to help create an environment where everyone respects each other, so we can get things done that need to get done. A big part of that is learning how to deal with difficult attitudes.
