The 2026 Multi-State Harassment Training Mandate Map
Side-by-side breakdown of all seven mandate states, NYC, Chicago, and D.C.: thresholds, durations, frequencies, content requirements, recordkeeping, and penalties. Built for the multi-state HR practitioner who needs one document, not eleven.
The Affirmative Defense Field Guide
An introduction to the Faragher/Ellerth framework and the prevention, reporting, response, and documentation practices your counsel can evaluate against its requirements.
Workplace Investigation Playbook
A practical investigation reference: complaint intake, relevant questions, witness interviews, evidence preservation, documentation, findings, and follow-up. A guide to thorough fact gathering and a clear record.
Texas SB 45 Compliance Brief
The 2021 amendments lowered the employer threshold to 1+ employee, created potential supervisor and HR personal exposure, and stretched the statute of limitations. What changed, what the case law now looks like, and what to do about it.
Auto Dealer HR Risk Reference
Industry-specific risk patterns across sales, F&I, service, and parts: the complaint categories we see most, the supervisor behaviors that recur, and the multi-rooftop program structure that addresses them.
Building Safer Ministries: A Steward's Brief
Theological framing for the staff-workplace-misconduct work, written for senior pastors, executive pastors, denominational leaders, and elders. The Five-Pillar framework translated into ministry language.
Guides are general information, not legal advice. Requirements change; confirm current rules with the applicable agency or your employment counsel.
