Ogletree Deakins Podcasts

In this podcast recorded at Ogletree Deakins’ national Workplace Strategies seminar, Nonnie Shivers (shareholder, Phoenix) and Tiffany Cox Stacy (office managing shareholder, San Antonio) discuss the EEOC’s final guidance on harassment in the workplace. Tiffany and Nonnie cover the ways in which the new guidance, which the agency issued on April 29, 2024, updates, consolidates, and replaces the agency’s previous guidance. They also explain the guidance’s 70+ examples illustrating unlawful workplace harassment situations, covering both circumstances emerging in the office and in the ever-growing virtual workplace. Finally, Nonnie and Tiffany discuss what the EEOC’s new guidance means for employers as they seek to keep their harassment policies and processes effective and compliant.
