Diversity Training

Diversity Training

Instructions:

While many may frame discrimination in the workplace as being solely a legal issue, most in HR also recognize that discrimination decreases the overall productivity and effectiveness of not only an individual worker but the organization as a whole. HR departments work to eliminate discrimination when it becomes apparent. Unfortunately, there is not a set group of steps or procedures that can address all situations.

  • Considering this please address the following prompts in your one-page discussion.
    • Think back to an instance of discrimination that you may be familiar with, or create a discrimination scenario based on your reading. What are the specific steps you would take as an HR manager to prevent discrimination from occurring in your present or in a previous employer?
