Retaliation 101: How To Avoid Or Manage Retaliation Claims
Retaliation claims continue to be on the rise. In 2014, the EEOC investigated the highest number of retaliation claims in its entire history. In fact, 42.8% of all charges filed were retaliation claims.

The SEC saw a similar increase and reported that both the number of whistleblower claims and the magnitude of the financial awards stemming from those claims "were record-breaking" in FY 2014. Without even accounting for state law and common law retaliation claims, the risk is high for businesses today, and the financial implications can be colossal.

Human Resources Departments need to be aware of how broadly – or narrowly - retaliation is defined and what internal steps can be taken to reduce the risk of claims.

About Webcasts / Audio Conferences / Podcasts:Webcasts, audio conferences, and podcasts are presentations that you attend via the Internet, phone, or mobile device at a specified date and time for "live" versions, or at your convenience for "recorded" and "On-Demand" versions.

The live versions are interactive, meaning that participants can ask questions in real time, plus are a very cost-effective form of training because 1) you receive fast, convenient learning without any out-of-office time; 2) you can invite as many colleagues as you'd like to listen in on a single phone line; 3) you incur no travel expenses; and 4) you and your colleagues are back at work immediately after the session ends!

And though with recorded versions you do lose the ability to ask questions, you gain the ability to hear the presentation numerous times and to share it with others in your office.

Handout materials and the phone number for live presentations are made available to you prior to the event via email from the presenter and from the "MyAccount" link on the menu bar. Copies of the presentations are included with recorded versions.
