Dress Code Nightmares: How to Deal with them and How to Prevent them
Overview:
This practical webinar teaches HR professionals and small business owners how to avoid harassment or discrimination claims that can arise from poorly handled - or inconsistently enforced - dress code issues.
It provides specific guidance on how to talk about some of the most difficult topics there are - body odor, inappropriate dress, an unkempt appearance, etc.
Why you should attend: What employees wear to work might seem like a trivial matter - unless you're in HR. Not only are dress code policies frequently violated, what people wear to work can relate to more fundamental rights such as the right to religious or ethnic expression.
