How to Avoid Getting Sued for Workplace Sexual Harassment of Transgender Employees - San Francisco News - The Snitch

respecting people's names, and the pronoun they use to describe themselves.
giving them access to appropriate facilities, allowing them to comply with dress code consistent with gender identity.
making sure their health care benefits are inclusive of medically necessary care for transgender people.

Now that the TSA managers at LAX have been forced to implement training along these principles, the agency will be better for it, Wertz says.

I'm glad that they're having to take the training. Granted, it doesn't mean they will follow it, but hopefully they will come around and realize what they're doing. I think it is a big step forward.
