Under a new California law, employers with 5 or more employees are required to provide:
–
- 2-hours of sexual harassment training to supervisors and
- 1-hour to nonsupervisory employees within six (6) months of hire or promotion.
This requirement must be completed by January 1, 2020. All trainings must be delivered every two years. There is a proposal pending with the state to extend the completion date to January 1, 2021, however, it has not yet been approved. For now, the completion date remains January 1, 2020.

Our onsite training sessions for Supervisor and/or Staff are customized to each client by incorporating company values, guiding principles, and interactive exercises. For Supervisors, we provide training and tools to mitigate potential risks internally. Each attendee will receive a certificate of completion confirming compliance with DFEH sexual harassment training regulations. |
