This webinar will cover the elements of the victim’s claims and the employer’s defenses, the value of an investigation into allegations and claims, and remedies for wrongful conduct.
California State law requires all businesses with five or more employees to provide one hour of training on Sexual Harassment and Abusive Conduct Prevention Training to all subordinate employees by December 31, 2020. (Cal. Senate Bills 1343 and 778) Through a varied and interesting format, employees learn the basics of state and federal laws governing unlawful harassment based upon California’s protected categories (over 14 main classes plus several subclasses).
The instructor of this webinar will focus on current types of sexual harassment and “abusive conduct” in the workplace and train on employees’ obligations to help prevent it, with interesting examples and war stories about Quid Pro Quo and Hostile Work Environment Harassment. Your attendance certificate can document compliance in the event of an audit and satisfies California laws requiring this training by December 31, 2020.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify what conduct does or does not constitute unlawful sexual harassment or “abusive conduct” under California and Federal laws
- List the ways to act in the workplace to avoid personal liability for sexual harassment and protect others from harassers
- Recognize when to report a potential claim and when employers should conduct an investigation
