Some important things to consider about policy drafting:

01

Employment

  • Harassment, Discrimination & Retaliation / EEO Is your policy up to date with the latest protected classes and prohibited behaviors?
  • Sexual Harassment Does your policy address on-line and off-site behavior? Does your policy provide example s of unacceptable behavior?
  • ADA / Reasonable Accommodations Is the interactive process part of your procedure? Do you know what type of verification you can and can’t ask for?
  • Complaint Policy & Investigations Do you have multiple avenues for an employee to file a complaint?Is your process burdensome? Should your complaint policy be provided in multiple languages?
02

Fair Housing:

  • Rental housing owners: Do you have a Fair Housing policy and do your employees and managers know about it? Does it cover the following:
  • Non-Discrimination & Harassment – including a comprehensive listing of protected classes
  • Tenant Selection / Screening Procedures
  • Reasonable Accommodation / Reasonable Modifications Request Procedures
  • In addition to Federal Law, does it include relevant state or local fair housing laws?
03

Public Accommodations:

  • Do you know if your business is a public accommodation?
  • If so, do you have an appropriate policy regarding customer treatment that is understood and are your employees aware of it?
  • Does it include a complaint process?
