Outline your organization’s policies and practices as they relate to preventing and/or correcting workplace harassment. Provide one or two examples to demonstrate the policy and/or practice. If your organization has no documented policy or practice for preventing or correcting workplace harassment (you may want to check with HR to verify the policy(ies), state that fact and give some examples of how a stated policy might have prevented workplace harassment.

Finally, develop recommendations for the leaders of the organization to improve or sustain the prevention or correction of workplace harassment. Please reference and cite the course material in your paper.
