HRC has released "Workplace Gender Transition Guidelines for Transgender Employees, Managers, and Human Resource Professionals". (This link is a PDF file, if it doesn't load properly from this post try going to this link: http://www.hrc.org/Template.cfm?Section=Transgender_Issues&Template=/TaggedPage/TaggedPageDisplay.cfm&TPLID=26&ContentID=13304 and you will find it listed as the first item under "Resources".)

I'm interested to hear what other folks think of this. I see a few problematic things about it, but also a lot of really good ones, and I'm glad to see HRC at least tryingM/i> to be on board with trans issues.
