The Real Cost of Misconduct—And How to Stop It Before It Starts

Join us for an exclusive webinar on mitigating workplace misconduct risks.

Misconduct isn’t just a workplace issue—it’s a business risk. Mercer’s latest Top 25 People Risk research ranks misconduct among the top five workplace risks, and for good reason:

• Just 5% of employees engaging in misconduct can slash productivity by 40% and make great employees 54% more likely to leave.
• $4.6 trillion is lost globally each year to occupational fraud.
• $50 billion per year is lost due to employee theft.
• Harassment costs companies between $300 and $1,000 per employee annually—and that’s before lawsuits and reputational damage.

And the financial cost is only part of the story.

In this session, we’ll explore how workplace responsibility now expands beyond office walls into online behavior, with major legal and reputational consequences:

• A prison supervisor harassed a subordinate on social media, leading the EEOC to expand the definition of workplace misconduct to include online behavior.
• A Citigroup employee’s pro-Hitler comments on X sparked public outrage, forcing the company to terminate them immediately.
• The Emilia Perez Oscar campaign collapsed after lead actress Karla Sofia Gascon’s past posts attacking Muslims, George Floyd, and diversity in Hollywood resurfaced.

One employee. Big impact.

How Companies Can Get Ahead of the Risk

Workplaces now have a new tool to mitigate these risks: Behavior Intelligence.
