Jaime Klein, President and Founder of Inspire HR, discusses the rise in sexual harassment allegations in the workplace today and the role that HR plays in curating an accepting workplace culture. Klein says that when it comes to complaints filed, HR is the first responder, and it is up to that department to make sure that those speaking out feel comfortable. And employees should try to find a leader or manager that they're comfortable approaching. Klein weighs in on the gender pay gap and the importance of putting women in influential roles. We talk about why women have sometimes taken decades to speak out, out of fear of retaliation and what it means if HR departments are just hearing those claims today.
