Far too many housing providers are unaware that maintenance professionals require fair housing training as much as any other position in the industry.  Often these employees interact with residents more often than leasing or management and can become the front lines of your property or company.  They need to understand how to recognize a potential fair housing issue, respond appropriately, and properly document and report to the right person.  Make sure your maintenance professionals have the tools they need to succeed.
