In this episode, Bridget Blinn-Spears discusses sexual harassment issues for health care employers in the wake of the #MeToo movement. While the law in this area has been established for decades, there continues to be a high volume of workplace discrimination and harassment disputes in today’s highly charged environment, arising from a variety of facts that range from derogatory comments to rape. This episode will highlight some of the contributing factors for these claims in the health care industry as well as certain best practices for health care employers to help address these potential issues.
