In this episode, we unpack the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s recent decision to withdraw its prior enforcement guidance on workplace harassment, a move that has left many employers questioning what standards now apply. Listen as we explore the legal and practical implications of this shift, including how courts may interpret harassment claims without the withdrawn guidance and whether existing policies still hold up under scrutiny.
