Ground Rules: Employment Law Over Your Coffee Break

Respect at Work: How Civility Shapes Culture—and Claims

Pam Howland Season 1 Episode 21

In this episode of Ground Rules, the hosts are joined by seasoned HR consultant Rhiannon Albert to unpack an often-overlooked compliance risk: workplace civility and respect. The conversation dives into how everyday behaviors—rudeness, exclusion, unchecked conflict—can quietly escalate into discrimination claims or toxic cultures that drive away top talent. With real-world examples and insights from both legal and HR perspectives, this episode explores why fostering respect in the workplace isn't just a matter of culture—it's a matter of liability.
