Preventing Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment Training is Essential to Your Defense
Some states legislatures have mandated it. More than one-half of all state legislatures have addressed it.
Most notably, the U.S. Supreme Court has made clear that employers that train managers on sexual harassment prevention can take advantage of certain affirmative defenses to limit their liability should a lawsuit arise. This defense is further strengthened when harassment prevention training is extended to include employees working side-by-side in the workplace.
Sexual harassment is prohibited under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as a form of discrimination on the basis of gender. It s illegal and the cost is high should you or your organization be found guilty. This two-part training course is designed to meet state mandated training requirements and provides both employees and management with a clear understanding of what legally constitutes harassment, what to do if it occurs, and how to swiftly investigate and manage the sexual harassment complaint.
