Harassment Prevention for Leaders: Discrimination, Retaliation, and Workplace Respect
This course is California AB1825 compliant.
Harassment Prevention for Leaders: Discrimination, Retaliation, and Workplace Respect helps leaders understand their responsibility to prevent, identify, address, and report inappropriate workplace behavior.
Leaders play a critical role in creating a respectful, legally compliant workplace. Their actions, inactions, comments, documentation, and response to employee concerns can affect workplace culture, employee trust, and organizational risk. Harassment prevention training helps leaders recognize problematic behavior earlier, respond appropriately, and support a workplace where employees understand expectations for respectful conduct.
This leader-level harassment prevention course covers unlawful harassment, illegal discrimination, retaliation, abusive conduct, protected characteristics, complaint reporting, and the employer’s obligation to respond to workplace concerns. Participants also examine the leader’s role in preventing inappropriate behavior, responding to complaints, supporting anti-harassment policies, and partnering with HR when concerns arise.
The course is designed to comply with applicable state and jurisdictional requirements, including California AB1825 supervisory training requirements. It can be delivered live or through companion e-learning modules.
