Disciplinary harassment Counseling for South Dakota Employers
When harassment occurs and immediate termination isn’t the route taken, South Dakota employers require a structured, legally sound response. Our one-on-one disciplinary counseling offers a private path to correct misconduct, reinforce policies, and protect your organization, while keeping employees in their roles under strict behavior expectations.
Components of Our Counseling Sessions
Focused Post-Incident Coaching
Identify the misconduct, clarify the impact, and review relevant company policies and legal standards.
Assessment-Based Learning
Pre- and post-training evaluations track understanding and behavior correction.
Follow-Up Accountability
Optional monthly check-ins help HR track progress and enforce compliance.
South Dakota & Federal Law Compliance
Sessions reference Title VII and South Dakota’s Human Rights Act to ensure full legal coverage.
Complete HR Documentation
Includes detailed write-ups on the session, behavior agreements, and recommended next steps.
This counseling is corrective and case-specific, not broad prevention or awareness training.

Clear Behavior Boundaries
Demonstrates exactly what was wrong and why it violated policy or law.
Reduces Legal Risk

“Of course, it’s never comfortable for people to talk about sex, sexual assault and the use of condoms during sex. But it’s a fact of life. We’ve got to have a conversation about it, and we have to create a tool and an avenue for victims to seek justice when they are on the receiving end of this assault,” Wittman said.
While working with Wittman on drafting language for new legislation, Flynn also put together a survey for people to fill out to gauge their interest on cracking down harder on stealthing. Over 200 people have filled it out so far, with positive responses.
“The vast majority of individuals that participated in this survey weren’t aware of the terminology ‘stealthing.’ When we expanded that definition in the survey, with the follow up question, ‘Now that you know the definition, would you classify this as sexual assault?’ Overwhelmingly, people said yes,” Wittman said.
Community advocates and now state legislators are looking to tackle a growing issue nationwide and in South Dakota this upcoming session in Pierre. That’s the growing trend of sex stealthing.
