Potential sexual harassment entanglements can appear anywhere in the work environment and in many different forms.

This course provides practical examples designed to raise management awareness of potential employee issues and the legal liabilities associated with sexual harassment.

Regulations/Board Approvals

OSHA 29 CFR 1604.11: Sexual Harassment

Sexual Harassment Training - An Overview

Workplace harassment continues to be a major problem. Between 2018 and 2021, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) collected more than 98,000 harassment charges, of which almost 28,000 were for sexual harassment alone. Our online sexual harassment training for managers course provides an overall framework for recognizing and addressing harassment in the workplace. Managers will be trained through interactive modules to identity types of harassment, institute preventive actions, and effectively address complaints. The course covers the legal obligations of employers under federal and state statutes, including the requirements of California's AB 1825 and AB 2053. Through this course, managers will be capable of creating a respectful and inclusive workplace environment, decreasing the possibility of legal liability and increasing employee health.

Course Curriculum

Our curriculum covers difficult legal principles in a simple-to-understand format. From learning key legal definitions to applying policies in sensitive situations, every unit will help you address challenges effectively. Here’s what you’ll explore in each section of the sexual harassment training for managers:

Unit 1: Understanding Sexual Harassment Fundamentals

Learn to differentiate between the two primary forms of sexual harassment: quid pro quo and hostile work environment. Analyze actual examples that illustrate the often-fine lines between unprofessional, inappropriate, and illegal behavior in today's multicultural workplace.

Unit 2: Legal Framework and Compliance Requirements

Examine federal anti-harassment statutes, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and review recent judicial precedents affecting your role. Understand the relevant state-by-state requirements impacting your workplace and develop plans to secure complete compliance with all relevant rules.

Unit 3: Real Costs of Sexual Harassment

Learn how to calculate the direct financial impacts (settlements, legal fees, turnover) and hidden costs (productivity loss, morale damage, reputation harm) of workplace harassment. Master the ways to develop a business case for prevention with a better return on investment from proactive management practices.

Unit 4: Manager's Role in Prevention

Understand your particular duties for building a harassment-free workplace, such as overseeing workplace behavior and exhibiting proper conduct. Learn to establish concrete day-to-day practices that promote a culture of respect while limiting legal risk for yourself and your organization.

Unit 5: Effective Intervention Techniques

Master how to use a step-by-step intervention model when observing or taking reports of suspected harassment. Employ communication techniques to de-escalate conflict while documenting incidents accurately to safeguard all involved.

Unit 6: Best Practices in Investigation

Carry out effective, equitable, and legally permissible investigations into reported harassment. Excel at documentation procedures that shield both the company and individual rights while ensuring proper confidentiality throughout.

Unit 7: Corrective Action and Follow-up

Learn to administer proper discipline that addresses harassment without increasing legal risk. Establish remediation plans that restore workplace relationships and inhibit repetition of troublesome behavior.

Benefits of the Course

According to the Association for Talent Development (ATD), 71% of organizations offer sexual harassment prevention training. Effective sexual harassment training for managers provides value well beyond minimum legal requirements. Progressive organizations realize that these capabilities shift workplace culture and propel business achievement. Find out how this training generates concrete value for managers and their employees.

Improved Leadership Reputation

Trained managers in preventing harassment earn higher trust scores from their staff. They recognize and value leaders who stay professional and resolve issues quickly. Your improved reputation results in increased influence and staff commitment.

Less Turnover and Hiring Expenses

Workplaces with successful harassment prevention practices also have lower voluntary turnover. Workers remain longer in places where they are treated with respect and feel safe. Your organization avoids spending thousands on replacement costs per position held due to a better workplace culture.

Increased Team Productivity

Sexual harassment at work reduces labor productivity by up to 43.1%, while even witnessing it increases counterproductive behaviors by 39.6%, a study published in Heliyon elucidated. A safe, respectful workplace allows teams to focus, collaborate better, and reach higher performance benchmarks without the burden of fear or tension.

Legal Protection

Companies with extensive manager training programs experience significantly lower settlement costs when harassment does happen. Courts routinely reduce awards when firms show good-faith attempts at preventing harassment. Your forward-looking training establishes a defensible platform that can save hundreds of thousands in potential awards.

The course helped me refresh my safety knowledge for the construction site. The content was easy to follow and the real life examples made it more relatable. I have not been in training for a while, so I appreciated how it was not too overwhelming. I feel more confident about handling workplace safety. I now know what to do in emergencies.

Frequently Asked Questions
    • 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.

    • 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.

    • 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.

    • 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.
