Managing Essentials™ Gender Discrimination

If you find there has been discrimination, make upper management aware of it. If there’s no evidence of discrimination, you need to counter the employee’s perception of it. Cite organization policy and give specific examples to show your organization’s point of view. If you find there has been discrimination, either conscious or unconscious, assure the employee it will be stopped. Agree on actions to be taken to prevent it from happening again. Make sure you check-in with the employee within a week, and frequently after that, until the problem is resolved. Document all discussions when it’s appropriate.
