Unlawful Harassment
     

Unlawful Harassment Prevention Training

Unlawful harassment and discrimination claims changed in 1998 when the U.S. Supreme Court gave employers a powerful "affirmative defense" to claims of unlawful harassment and discrimination. If your employees and supervisors haven't been trained, your organization might not be able to utilize this critically important legal defense. Our courses meet the training requirements outlined by the EEOC and the U.S. Supreme Court and were developed using actual court cases and years of employee training experience.
