MANAGING TITLE IX AND TITLE VII REPORTS

HR professionals have long been versed in addressing sexual harassment in the workplace. But how does that responsibility change when we work on a college campus? What happens when an employee is harassed by a student or vice versa? Where do Title IX and Title VII collide? In this interactive session, we’ll explore several case studies and discuss best practices for addressing the issues while balancing risk, law and equity.
