As legal obligations will be explored, and practical activities designed to put concepts into practice held, attendees will learn and utilize civil rights concepts to aid in the appreciation of human resources related threats and liabilities. This, in turn, may be used to mold and support an organization’s strategic direction and long-term goals. The Academy will also allow for direct interaction with the very law enforcement agency enforcing civil rights laws and regulations, and will aid in understanding the steps needed to assure compliance practices towards potential solution designs. This, inevitably, will aid in minimizing employee threats of legal action and civil rights related liabilities. This will allow for a human resources professional to provide strategic planning to the organization’s executives as well as strategies for stakeholders and external organizations relations. Thorough knowledge of civil rights law is at the heart of a human resources professional’s ethical practice. Having a sizable working knowledge of civil rights laws promotes core values, integrity, and accountability throughout an organization. Knowing what is legally required and what is not provides a guidepost for consistent practices, serves as a role model of personal integrity and high ethical standards, and brings potentially unethical and unlawful practices to the organization’s attention. A human resources professional who is knowledgeable of civil rights law permits employees to feel more empowered to raise perceived unethical and unlawful practices, allowing for efficient redressing before the need for legal enforcement actions, and permits an organization to be confident its practices are licit.
