SEXUAL HARASSMENT TRAINING

If you have employees in any of the states listed below you will need to provide your staff with Preventative Sexual Harassment Training:

Workplace harassment, which includes sexual harassment, is prohibited by Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Laws regarding workplace harassment, are enforced by the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)

​

Sexual Harassment is the most common type of workplace harassment. It is so common, that recent statistics show that more then half of all workers (54%) have experienced some form of sexual harassment in the workplace. One claim is all that it takes to destroy the hard work that has been put into building your business...

​

In addition to the laws enforced by the EEOC, five states (New York, California, Connecticut, Delaware, and Maine) have their own state laws specifically addressing sexual harassment, which require training to be provided to their entire staff!

• New York - New York Human Rights Law § 296.1, New York City Stop Sexual Harassment Act

• California - AB 1825, AB 2053, SB 396, SB 1300, SB 1343

• Connecticut - Connecticut Human Rights and Opportunity Act

• Delaware - HB 360

• Maine - Maine Employment Laws Revised Statute, Title 26, Section 807

​

 Why you need to act on this quickly:

​

New York State's deadline was October 9th, 2019...Each new employee who is onboarded must be trained within 90 days and each year thereafter...Please keep in mind, a claim from within your business of Sexual Harassment is not going to wait for the state deadline, so why would you wait any longer than TODAY to start protecting your business?

​

We have put this solution in place that leaves you spending no more then 5 minutes rolling out this program to your staff. Our course is Online, Self Paced, and Self Managed so that the rest of your business does not have to be put on hold to take on this task!

​

The most important part of this training is to have proof that your staff understood the material that was taught. This is the only way to protect your business!

​

Thanks to our solution, this is all taken care of for you! The employees will go through an online course and be required to pass a short test following their course. When they pass the test, a certificate will be emailed to them, and the administrator will be notified that the participants have completed their course and understood the material well enough to pass the exam. This effectively mitigates your risk as an employer.  Our course proves your did your due-diligence to effectively train and educate your staff on the Prevention of Sexual Harassment in your Workplace!

​

Best of all, they can do this on their own time at their own self pace! The employees have an opportunity to pause the course slide by slide to ensure it can be done on their own schedule. All you have to do is send one welcome email to your staff. If the employees ever have log in issues, or questions on the course, the call center is available for them to get the help they need, instead of burdening you with administrative tasks!

​

Why should I choose this this training option... I can buy a DVD?

The problem with training from a DVD, the material is outdated the moment it's purchased. There is no testing to ensure understanding. There is no proof that the employee watched the DVD. You are required to have someone available to answer questions. Are you going to be the one to answer the questions. Are you properly trained or are you putting  your company at greater risk ?

​

We are considering hiring a consultant to do the training?

This is an  additional option. BUT consider the following.  You have an ongoing training requirement for each new hire within 90 days. There is generally no testing for understanding. Most participants in these classes merely show up,  sign in and sit distracted  chatting with other participants or on their mobile phones. It disrupts the workday, stops productivity and is generally more expensive than our solution. Additionally, you are not assured of consistency of material with different trainers.
