Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Do you think you have to put up with inappropriate sexual behavior to get ahead in your career? Or have you been the victim of sexual harassment and don't know what to do about it?

Are you concerned that anything you do or say could be interpreted as sexual harassment? What are the rules and boundaries?

The Sexual Harassment Handbook is the first book that gives you the insight to assess a sexual situation on the job and take effective action, before the lawyers are called in.

Many situations involving sexual harassment can be prevented or resolved if you recognize what's happening and know what to do. The Sexual Harassment Handbook answers questions such as:

* What is the main reason people sue over sexual harassment?

* Can men be sexually harassed?

* Can I be harassed if I am a manager or supervisor?

* Why is dating a subordinate almost always a bad idea?

About the Author
Linda Gordon Howard's expertise as an attorney, consultant and trainer has helped thousands of people navigate the changing rules of sexual harassment. Her practical methods have been applied successfully in large and small organizations, including the White House, The United States Senate, The Ohio State University School of Law, the New York City Law Department, and Hunter College of the City University of New York. She resides in New York City.

5.0 out of 5 stars A valuable resource for employers, supervisors and employees, March 4, 2008
Employers are increasingly aware that sexual harassment is a problem and that they may be in for trouble if an incident happens in their workplace. However, they still struggle to understand exactly what it is and how to prevent it. In this useful manual, attorney Linda Gordon Howard explains U.S. law in plain language and provides real-life examples of sexual harassment. She points out that sexual harassment affects more than the actor or the target; it can create mistrust and poison the entire workplace atmosphere. She provides advice about investigating complaints, taking action and creating policies. getAbstract recommends this book to human resource managers and supervisors who wish to create workplaces that comply with the law and remain free of hostility.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Smart, Balanced Perspective, April 4, 2007
By D. Allyn (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
Finally, a sane approach to the subject of sexual harrassment. Far too long, we have been blinded by our emotional responses to the issue of sex in the workplace. Howard, a lawyer, brings her sharp legal mind to the topic, demonstrating that the biggest dangers are misunderstanding and miscommunication. Every HR professional should purchase this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything You Need To Know, May 16, 2007
As a manager of a good sized company I really needed to read Ms. Howard's book. I now keep it out in my office so everyone can see it. Sexual harassment happens a lot more often than people realize. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and now feel much more competent in handling any issues that come up. Thank you Ms. Howard for writing such an insightful and helpful book.
