Employers in Mississippi must respond deliberately and in line with federal standards:
Title VII Applies to Firms ≥15 Staff.
Federal law protects employees in qualifying businesses against sex‑based harassment.
Victims Have 180 Days to File
Employees must report harassment to the EEOC within 180 days—crucial for preserving legal options.
Policy and Documentation Required
Besides keeping written policies, employers must make a swift inquiry and discipline the employee to limit exposure to legal liability.
We deliver training to maintain this standard strictly in your organization.
