Professional Disciplinary Training for Harassment Incidents in New Mexico
ALBUQUERQUE | LAS CRUCES | SANTA FE
Workplace sexual misconduct calls for serious and proper action, especially when termination is not an option. In New Mexico, post-incident disciplinary training is offered to employees who have violated the harassment policies. These are private sessions conducted one-on-one in order to face the problem, correct the behavior, and reiterate the legal and organizational consequences of the continued misconduct.
Our program is not prevention training. It is a disciplinary intervention for crossing the line behavior.
What Our Disciplinary Counseling Covers
Each session for training is tailored to handling workplace violations at both the federal and New Mexico state levels. We identify the specific behaviors that violate EEOC Title VII regulations as well as employer-specific policies, including hostile work environment standards under the New Mexico Human Rights Act.
Key components of the session include:
- Direct post-incident confrontation and guided behavior correction
- Explanation of legal exposure for both the employee and employer
- Training on relevant New Mexico laws, including retaliation, harassment definitions, and employer liability
- A pre-training assessment and post-training written test to confirm understanding
- Permanent HR documentation with summary reports and compliance recommendations
- Confidential reports delivered directly to HR and executive leadership
Disciplinary sessions are held in the Albuquerque, Santa Fe, and Las Cruces offices. Each employee is given written handouts reflecting New Mexico workplace law and company policies so that there will be no confusion and there will be accountability.
Accountability Measures for Lasting Impact
This is not classroom training. It is individual remedial training for misconduct that has already occurred. Staff members are challenged to understand how their behavior violates workplace expectations. Our consultants also offer HR check-ins every month and assist with setting up a tracking mechanism to ensure continued compliance.
New Mexico Workplace Misconduct Updates
Federal Housing Case Settles After Manager Harassed Tenants
The DOJ secured a $360,000 settlement from the owners and former manager of St. Anthony Plaza Apartments in Albuquerque. The property manager harassed the female tenants on multiple occasions—locking some in offices, demanding sex, threatening eviction, or something of that nature. The owners must now develop formal nondiscrimination and harassment policies, along with training for all staff.
Sandia Transportation Settles Harassment & Retaliation Complaint
A New Mexico transportation company paid $97,500 for the settlement of the EEOC charges. The employees were subjected to insults and threats of violence on a repeated basis by the owner, and he retaliated when they reported the conduct. The case highlights the potential civil and criminal liabilities the supervisor faces for his own conduct and the need for structured procedures for correcting employee behavior.

State Corrections Department Pays $2.5M in Harassment Claim.
An amount of $2.5 million was settled between six ex-female correctional officers at a New Mexico prison, who were exposed to pornography, with derogatory comments, and improper touching. Internal investigations found that at the very least, it was an unsafe workplace culture. This settlement strongly emphasizes employer liability when corrective and remedial actions are delayed or not taken.
