2009 is an AB 1825 Sexual Harassment Training Year – Are You Ready?

Jun 03 2009

2009 is a sexual harassment prevention “re-train” year for most California employers. The state’s strict sexual harassment training law, AB 1825, requires any organization that does business in California, and that has more than 50 employees, to provide 2 hours of sexual harassment training to all California supervisors, every 2 years.

Beyond California, for more than a decade, the U.S. Supreme Court and the EEOC have strongly encouraged sexual harassment training for all employees, punishing employers who fail to educate their employees. Adding fuel to the fire, a new Obama administration has vowed stricter enforcement of discrimination laws, and just released EEOC stats show claims at a record high, increasing 15.2% in 2008.

Now is the time to take a close look at your sexual harassment training programs. Far too many training programs are non-compliant and actually create legal risk.
