Dear ODV,
A few weeks ago the Officers and Director’s
Insurance Policy and the Omission and Errors Liability Policy
were renewed. In order to retain coverage on sexual
harassment claims on the renewal, ARRL is now required to
provide all directors and vice directors with harassment
training. As our society’s culture is changing, such
training is not just a good idea but important for us as an
organization to support.
In order to comply with this new
requirement, we are going to integrate the training into
Director/Vice Director orientations that take place on the
Wednesday before each January’s Board Meeting. The training
will be held after dinner on Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the
hotel. The training will be held by Human Resource Counsel
from CBIA (Connecticut Business and Industry Association).
Most of you received this training already
in July 2018 and
do not need to attend. However, I am requesting that
our newer members of the board family (see below) who have not
received this training from ARRL plan on attending Wednesday
night’s training. If you would, please confirm your
attendance with Dee Methe no later than December 20, 2019 in
order for us to have appropriate space configuration and
materials ready.
Thank you/73,
Diane
