EEOC Issues Guidance on Workplace Harassment and Discrimination

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has recently updated its Enforcement Guidance on Harassment in the Workplace.  The guidance covers a wide range of recent hot topics, from harassment in a virtual work environment to protections against pregnancy harassment. The guidance reflects how the EEOC’s interpretation of what constitutes harassment has evolved over time and provides insight into the Commission’s analysis of employer liability. PBPA will present a webcast on recent employment developments, including this new guidance, in September. Learn more about the new EEOC guidance in this article from Reed Smith.
