TrainingBriefs® Unwelcomed Advances

Our working relationships are complicated for all kinds of reasons. That’s why you really have to know where the lines are when it comes to managing interactions with co- workers, customers, and vendors. Take the unwanted pursuit of a relationship, for example. It doesn’t make any difference where it comes from – a manager, a coworker, a vendor, or a customer. Unwanted pursuit could be considered illegal harassment and simply can’t be a part of the workplace.

No matter who we are or what title we have, it’s our job to help create a respectful and harassment-free workplace. That means a professional workplace where we follow policies and comply with the law.
