Many workplaces have made progress on LGBT equality, yet LGBT employees can still fear losing their jobs because of who they are or whom they love. This 90-minute webinar helps healthcare organizations build policies, procedures and practices for LGBT inclusion.
You'll examine perceptions, stereotypes and heterosexism, the assumption that everyone is or should be heterosexual, and how it shows up in overt and covert behavior. The session covers recruitment and retention, marketing and advertising, international considerations, how Title VII and EEOC actions have been applied to LGB and transgender employees, and responding to negative reactions.
It also explains gender transition guidelines, restroom access, and dress codes for transgender and gender non-conforming employees.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
When LGBT staff don't feel accepted, morale and productivity fall, turnover rises and patient care can suffer. Organizations that fail to include LGBT employees also face liability risk under EEOC positions, some state laws and court rulings.
This session suits healthcare executives, HR leaders and staff, managers, supervisors, clinicians, compliance and risk managers, and attorneys in hospitals, clinics and other care settings.
