Sexual Harassment Prevention and Response for Employees in California (Spanish)
Course Description:
California law mandates that employees receive 1 hour of training every 2 years on how to recognize and prevent sexual harassment, discrimination, and retaliation. This course meets those requirements with hypothetical workplace scenarios, interactive “Knowledge Checks” throughout to assess learning, skill-building activities, the ability to “ask a question” about the training, and a final quiz, with results retained for your records. This course will provide your employees with the information and practical guidance regarding state and federal laws; how to prevent, respond to, and correct sexual harassment; remedies available to persons subject to harassment; and the potential for liability.
