State Requirements

Thanks in part to movements such as #MeToo and Time’s Up, sexual harassment and discrimination have moved to the forefront of the national conversation. Responsible agents not only reject sexually predatory behavior but also actively dismantle toxic workplace environments to ensure a safe place for all. It’s up to agents to reject behaviors or ideologies that could damage neighbors, clients, and each other.

In this course, we’ll take a closer look at how sexual harassment is defined and the impact such behavior can have on your clients, your brokerage, and your reputation. Additionally, we’ll discuss actions you can take to ensure that your office is inclusive and welcoming to all, and that your clients’ best interests are always protected. This includes tips for putting together a comprehensive office policy that thoroughly addresses sexual harassment and discrimination.

Course highlights:

How sexual harassment is defined by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR)
Protections offered through Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the federal Fair Housing Act
Ramifications of sexual harassment within a brokerage, including how it affects clients and customers
Federal Sexual Harassment Housing Initiative
Federal and state laws protecting sexual orientation and gender identity in housing
Landmark legal cases relating to sexual harassment and gender discrimination
Tips for putting together a comprehensive office policy that addresses sexual harassment and the complaint process
Activities and scenarios to reinforce key concepts
