Designing & Developing a Compliant Affirmative Action Plan from A-Z Certificate Program
Each one of us is hired to help our organization perform at its best and provide quality services. You should expect your organization and co-workers to treat people with respect and help them to develop personally and professionally in the workplace.
People who are pursuing employment opportunities, such as applying for a new job or a promotion, though, may be faced with discrimination based on factors unrelated to the ability to do the job. This discrimination and harassment may be based on race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, ethnicity or national origin, veteran status, disability, or other classes protected by law.
By taking this course, you will learn what Affirmative Action is and why Affirmative Action Plans, either voluntary or involuntary, are needed to ensure potential and existing employees are treated fairly with dignity and respect. You will also learn how to design and develop an Affirmative Action Plan.
These laws also help maintain a workplace where all employees can work, remain productive, advance, and develop to their fullest potential.
Affirmative Action refers to a set of practices designed to correct the trends created by past discrimination. It is important for you to understand what Affirmative Action is and how it is relevant to you and your organization today. This course has been prepared with these objectives in mind.
