Harassment Training Overview Recent Supreme Court decisions, EEOC Guidelines, and many state laws such as California’s AB 1825 with California: Government Code 12950.1 update, CA FEHA Harassment Training Requirements, Connecticut General Statute Section 46a-54-204 and Maine Revised Statute, Title 26, Section 807, make it clear that employers need to go beyond simply having an anti-harassment policy. Employers need to ensure that management and supervisor harassment training is provided. Employers will also want to provide training to ensure every employee understands the organization's harassment policy.
We provide both online and onsite instructor-led harassment training for employees and supervisors.
4 Minute Video - Attorney Max Muller explains how employers can create a legally defensible position against sexual harassment claims.
In order for an employer to have a defensible position if a harassment claim is filed, the employer must be able to demonstrate that employees have been trained and know exactly what sexual harassment is and what to do about harassment if they see it happening to them or anyone else. Managers and supervisors must be aware of management's responsibility to control sexual and other forms of discriminatory workplace harassment. Not only do managers need to know how to prevent workplace harassment, they must also know what to if they see harassment occur and what steps to take if harassment claims are made.
New developments in sexual harassment laws have placed increasing pressure on employers to take proactive approaches to ensure the workplace is free of harassment. Supreme Court decisions (such as Faragher v. City of Boca Raton) make it clear that training to prevent sexual harassment and how to take appropriate measures to protect victims of harassment is expected in the workplace.
