California Sexual Harassment Prevention Training

California protects employees against more forms of harassment and discrimination than federal law does, and it expects workplaces to train accordingly. This course gives a thorough grounding in both. It defines sexual harassment and clears up the common myths around it, then works through how harassment actually shows up at work, how to recognize a hostile work environment, and the right way to report and respond. It is built for employees and managers who want a complete picture of their rights, their responsibilities, and what California expects.

What the course covers

• What sexual harassment is, including quid pro quo and the hostile work environment, and the stereotypes that get in the way of recognizing it

• How to report harassment, and how managers should handle and investigate a complaint

• The elements of an effective anti-harassment policy and how it is put into practice

• Broader discrimination, including discriminatory hiring and firing, and how the Americans with Disabilities Act affects hiring and workplace accommodations

How the course works

The course is online and self-paced, so you can complete it on your own schedule from any device, and managers can assign and track it across a team.
