We will be covering three common human right pitfalls many organizations and workplaces experience. First, not knowing what discrimination is, looks like, or presents as. Second, not being proactive or prepared to tackle human rights issues, such as having adequate training and policies. And finally, reacting too little, too late, poorly or not at all to human rights issues. This may include failing to properly investigate, turning a blind eye unless there is a written complaint, or not properly supporting a complainant or witness.
