Summary

The BE HEARD in the Workplace Act would force employers with 15 or more workers to create and post clear nondiscrimination policies, provide regular harassment training, and make these materials accessible. It also creates a new EEOC Office of Education and Outreach, a harassment task force, and nationwide grant programs to help small businesses and low‑income workers fight discrimination. The goal is to reduce harassment and expand legal protections for all employees, including tipped workers and independent contractors.
