Understand & Prevent Workplace Sexual Harassment: Training for Employees

On-Demand Recording

90 minutes | INSTRUCTOR-LED TRAINING

Educating your staff is a critical first step for avoiding sexual harassment and assault in the workplace.

Join us for a fast paced, real world and example rich, 90-minute webinar. We'll take participants through a wide range of words, nonverbals, and other actions that constitute sexual harassment - both legal but offensive, to clearly unlawful and actionable.

This training couples that information, with effective measures to avoid, reduce, report and react to sexual harassment claims.

Your staff will discover the following:

  • Define what constitutes discrimination or sexual harassment - plus, what does not - under federal and state laws, and an organization's policies
  • Discern the difference between words and actions that are legal but harmful, as well as words and actions that do violate the law(s)
  • Recognize protected classes of individuals under federal and state laws, regulations and case law
  • An understanding of the difference between gender identity, gender expression, and sexual orientation
  • How micro-assaults, micro-insults and micro-invalidations can morph into bullying or unlawful harassment
  • Describe and adhere to the elements of the organization's anti-discrimination and harassment policies including the entity's complaint reporting, confidentiality and anti-retaliation provisions
  • The remedies available to them under federal, state and local laws, and the organization's policies
  • Ways to analyze factual settings to determine if a sexual harassment charge is "quid pro quo or "hostile environment
  • How to comprehend their own personal liability for violations of the law and/or organizational policies
