Legally Required Harassment Prevention Training
It seems that every day there is a new allegation of sexual harassment in the headlines. With heightened awareness, and new levels of reporting unprofessional behavior, you have never been at greater risk to face a harassment charge. Harassment is a legal risk for your organization, it lowers morale, decreases productivity, and can cost you good employees. Education is the key to mitigating your risk and creating a respectful workplace.
Anti-harassment training for supervisors is also required by law. AB 1825 requires that all California employers with 50 or more employees provide at least two hours of anti-harassment training. The recent passage of SB 396 makes California the first state to require that harassment training cover gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation. This workshop is a cost-effective way to provide this mandatory training to supervisors. The training is interactive and practical, teaching supervisors essential management skills while discussing the legally required harassment related topics. Classes will be taught by Fisher Phillips attorneys who are experts in this area of the law and well known for their practical and engaging training programs.
Who is required to attend:
- Supervisors – every two years
- New Supervisors – within 6 months of promotion
- Anyone who hires, fires, disciplines, and/or directs the work of one or more employees.
- Every two years and within 6 months of hire or promotion
