| Description: |
''''This course is intended to teach learners how to exercise sound judgment in the hiring and interviewing process. Not many companies nowadays specify discriminatory characteristics either directly or openly in an advertisement, unless these are required by a bona fide occupational qualification.Your advertising medium, the questions you ask on forms, what you discuss in company publications, and your interview questions combine to create an impression of you and your organization. It may happen, unintentionally, that your recruiting, interviewing, and hiring processes illegally or unfairly discriminate against "protected" individuals or minority groups. It may also happen that your company communicates the wrong message unintentionally. This course helps to recognize aspects of discrimination in advertising and other recruitment materials, and how to avoid the use of discriminatory language.The course also highlights employers'''' legal obligations regarding discrimination and other recruitment issues, and the importance of basing your recruitment decisions on a valid business reason or a bona fide occupational qualification. SkillSoft''''s Legal Compliance courses are developed and maintained with subject matter support provided by the Labor, Employment, and Employee Benefits Law Group of the law firm of Sheehan Phinney Bass + Green PA.
