Discrimination and harassment awareness

Companies anxious to have a working environment free of these difficult issues struggle with education, re-education, and reinforcing awareness while adding employees, replacing turnover, etc. Most authorities believe, and we agree, that proactively creating a culture within your company where these attitudes are not tolerated or protected is the only way to protect yourself from problems. One proactive solution offered by consultant/lawyer Donald A. Phin, Esq., is a periodic compliance survey of employees. They offer forms and procedures for this purpose – employees are asked to advise their employer in writing that (1) they are aware of the company’s policies, and (2) they are unaware of any violations of these policies.

Internet in the office

Jorgensen’s Journal, a human resources newsletter, tells of recent survey results: "…developers of on-line gaming services report 40% to 60% of those who access their services have corporate .com addresses." Not surprisingly, more than half of executives surveyed felt employee effectiveness suffered from non-business Internet use. If this is not an issue at your company, is that because your employees are unique or because you haven’t noticed?
