Epstein Becker Green – Event Announcement: Managing in the #MeToo Era: The Latest Legal Developments and Their Implications for Health Care Employers
Epstein Becker Green invites you to an interactive roundtable discussion on the implications of the #MeToo movement for members of the health care industry. The #MeToo era is in full swing, and it shows no signs of subsiding anytime soon. For a host of reasons, the health care industry is a particularly vulnerable target of the movement, along with Time’s Up, #MeToo’s sister campaign. We will lead you through an in-depth discussion on creating a workplace environment free from harassment and discrimination, including the critical role senior leadership plays in creating an anti-harassment culture. This roundtable will also address how proper policies, training, and substantive investigations can reduce occurrences of sexual harassment. In addition, we will discuss new and pending legislative changes, including limitations on the use of confidentiality or nondisclosure agreements, which have important implications for the highest levels of management, given the risk of unwanted publicity and reputational damage.

Epstein Becker Green – PR Announcement: Addressing the Rise of the #MeToo Movement in the Workplace: In the past year, New York City, New York State, California, and Delaware have passed new laws requiring all employers – regardless of industry – to train their employees on certain aspects of sexual harassment and reporting procedures. As a result of the #MeToo movement and the renewed focus on sexual harassment, at least 19 other state legislatures are in the process of codifying mandatory anti-harassment training, posting, and reporting laws for all employers. Epstein Becker Green is pleased to offer a 50-state compliant suite of anti-harassment e-learning courses, “Halting Harassment: Rules of the Road for a Respectful and Inclusive Workplace,” that the firm created to enable employers to meet applicable legal requirements and cost-effectively train large groups of employees, including supervisors.
