Oklahoma does not require private employers to provide sexual harassment training, but the Oklahoma Anti-Discrimination Act prohibits workplace discrimination and the Office of the Oklahoma Attorney General handles enforcement. Training is recommended, and it is the practical way to show that an employer exercised reasonable care to prevent harassment before a complaint ever reached an investigator.
