Sexual Harassment Claims & Complications With Relationships at Work

Workplace harassment based on sex and power imbalances can take on many forms, and its effects can ripple through an organization.  All legal departments need to know the risks and liabilities associated with workplace relationships, especially romantic relationships.

Verrill attorneys Elizabeth T. Johnston and Elizabeth Connellan Smith will discuss what you need to know about potential corporate risks from workplace romances and relationships, including how relationships can lead to claims of discrimination and sexual harassment. Beyond that they will address:

• Sexual Harassment as a work related injury
• How to handle power imbalanced relationships
• Legislative repercussions to #MeToo
• What are Love Contracts

Beth and Liz will offer practical guidance on responding to and investigating claims of discrimination and harassment arising from workplace relationships, and give tips on preventing sexual harassment in the workplace, and how to manage coworkers' workplace relationships to mitigate risks before problems arise.
