1. How frequently should managers receive sexual harassment training?
Standards differ by state, such as California, New York, Illinois, and Connecticut require training every 1-2 years. Even where there are no timeframes, experts suggest annual refresher training because of changing laws and workplace standards.
2. Does online sexual harassment training meet legal needs?
Yes, our online sexual harassment training for managers satisfies all federal and state regulations when taken in its entirety. Our course features interactive components and testing tools that meet even the most stringent state requirements for participation and validation.
3. What is the difference between a hostile work environment and quid pro quo harassment?
Quid pro quo harassment happens when a manager or person in power says you must do something sexual to get a job benefit, like a raise or promotion. A hostile work environment is when repeated bad behavior, like jokes, comments, or unwanted touching, makes it hard or uncomfortable to work. Both types are against the law and are fully explained in our training.
4. Can managers be held personally responsible for harassment in their departments?
Yes, managers can become personally liable in most states if they do not take action to correct harassment that they knew about or should have known about. Our training covers specifically how to defend yourself against individual liability claims.
