Unlawful Harassment Prevention for Employees
Unlawful Harassment Prevention
In 1998, the U.S. Supreme Court gave employers a powerful
affirmative defense against claims of harassment and discrimination in the workplace. But if your employees and supervisors aren't regularly trained in unlawful harassment prevention, including sexual harassment prevention (California AB 1825), your organization might not be able to use this critically important legal defense.
Having an anti-harassment policy or sexual harassment policy is not enough. All employees and supervisors must receive compliance training regularly to establish an organization's affirmative defense.
Workplace Harassment Training and the Affirmative Defense
This highly engaging and provocative course challenges your employees with interactive exercises and decision-making scenarios regarding real-life workplace harassment situations. The course is available in specifically-designed versions for Public Agency Employees and Higher Education Faculty and Staff . All of our Unlawful Harassment Prevention courses are designed to meet the training requirements outlined by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), state laws and U.S. Supreme Court guidelines.
