Companies dealing with workplace harassment allegations face increasing investment and reputational risk. Investors should be focused on assessing this risk and finding ways to implement better risk-management policies.
If you’re not addressing workplace compliance risks, you are already behind. Heightened employee expectations, increased regulatory scrutiny and rapid amplification through media and social channels have changed how workplace issues are identified, investigated and resolved. Allegations involving harassment, discrimination, retaliation or other cultural concerns, particularly involving senior executives, can lead to significant lost shareholder value, reputational harm, litigation and shareholder activism.
