NJ Law Against Discrimination in the Workplace. A Webinar with the NJ Division on Civil Rights.

All employees are entitled to a workplace that is inclusive and free from discrimination. This training will provide an overview of how the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD) protects employees from harassment and discrimination. Through case studies and other interactive exercises, participants will examine the rights afforded to all employees and the responsibilities of employers to protect those rights. Topics include what constitutes a hostile work environment, workplace accommodation requirements, employer liability, and reporting processes. Participants will also explore the ways in which implicit biases can lead to discrimination, and how to foster respectful environments in which discrimination and harassment are not tolerated.

Training Expectations for the NJ Division on Civil Rights: 

 

  1. Participants should log onto training as individuals, not in groups

  2. Participants should use a laptop or desktop computer when possible – phones and tablets are permitted but discouraged
