Me Too and your business

Joe Biden is the most recent example of the Me Too movement standing tall. It was never okay to assume that it is acceptable to hug, kiss or make advances toward any person. The penalties are severe. Careers can be squandered. Reputations destroyed.

What is in your employee handbook about sexual harassment? How do you ensure that an individual’s rights are protected, immediate corrective actions are taken and everyone knows there is no place for bad actions?

Your HR department needs to take the lead. Training is critical and readily available. Remember – do unto others is still a great commandment.
