Sexual Harassment Training – English & Spanish
All California employers have a duty to take reasonable steps to prevent harassment in the workplace. They also have a duty to promptly correct harassment if it does happen. California requires all employers with five or more employees to provide sexual harassment prevention training. Reoccurring training must be conducted every two years (SB 1343).
- Supervisors must receive two hours of harassment prevention training and gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation prevention training (SB 396).
- Nonsupervisory employees must receive one hour of harassment prevention training.
- Training must take place within six months of hire or promotion and every two years thereafter.
- Seasonal and temporary employees — including those hired to work for less than six months — must be trained within 30 calendar days of hire or 100 hours worked, whichever occurs first
In short, your company has an obligation to prevent bullying, sexual harassment, and harassment based on gender identity and orientation.
