Harassment and discrimination in the workplace present a clear and present danger to businesses. Failure to adopt a pro-active and aggressive strategy for dealing with this danger can result in crushing lawsuits, loss of employee morale, decline in productivity and the erosion of a company's public image.
Most managers are aware that it is illegal to discriminate on the basis of race, national origin, age, sex, disability, and religion. But they are not always clear on what actions are not permitted under these laws. Discrimination or harassment based on personal bias can create serious legal and practical workplace problems.
