Harassment, Retaliation and the Pending November Elections
Fertile Ground for Employee Claims
Events
9.15.16
Harassment and Retaliation—yes, the issues have been around for a long time, but they continue to rank among the most popular and dangerous claims made against employers. Combine those theories and a contentious election season, and you have an environment ripe for disagreement and employment claims. We will review recent case developments involving harassment and retaliation claims in a variety of contexts, as well as address the potential for these (and related) claims during this vitriolic campaign season.
Topics
- Recent cases enforcing best practices to avoid and defend harassment and retaliation claims;
- Protections for political speech and activities; and
- Potential for claims during this election season and beyond.
