Effective January 2019, Senate Bill 1343 requires California businesses with 5 or more employees to provide sexual harassment training to both supervisors and non-supervisory staff by January 1, 2020. In addition, newly hired employees or newly promoted supervisors must be trained within six months.
Sierra HR Partners is here to help with a variety of training options!
Program Options
Training for Staff / Non-Supervisors
This one-hour interactive program is designed to satisfy all components of SB 1343, AB 2053 (abusive conduct), and SB 396 (gender identity and gender expression.)
Key topics include:
- Resolving workplace conflicts and minimizing gossip and inappropriate jokes
- Definitions and examples of two types of harassment and protected classes
- Abusive conduct and bullying
- Company policy and complaint process
Training for Supervisors
Our two-hour interactive program satisfies legal requirements by including the key staff topics, and adding the following:
- A supervisor’s role as an agent of the company
- Understanding potential liability for the company and the individual supervisor
- How to lead by example and set the tone for positive workplace behavior
- Protections against retaliation
- How to properly respond to a complaint of harassment
For your convenience and to foster a shared understanding between employees and management, these two workshops may overlap or be offered back to back.
