HarassmentClasses are ideal for employees and supervisors. This new course is an ideal way to learn the skills identify and prevent inappropriate harassment in the workplace before it’s too late.
Laguna Beach, CA, January 30 , 2009 — Harassment Training is a cost saving to companies who face potential lawsuits for inappropriate harassment work. A recent poll conducted by Louis Harris found that 31% of the female workers claimed to have been harassed at work. 43% said were harassed by a supervisor. Lawsuits resulting from these illegal harassment can result in companies paying millions of dollars in legal fees and victim compensation as well as very negative press. This website is a world-class, purely Internet based solution to training employees and supervisors on how to both identify and prevent sexual harassment.
“Sending an employee to an outside program can have challenges, such as lost wages and productively”, says Dr. Novick, “we have designed a state of the art inappropriate harassment training program that can be taken from any Internet-based computer to create a unique and rewarding distance learning experience”. He adds, “participants do not have to take time away from work, as the courses are designed to be self-paced”, says Dr. Novick.
For employers, this means you can have as few as one employee and up to thousands take the program simultaneously, if needed, or over several weeks or months.
Why take a course through this website? Participants will be trained in a variety of necessary skills, including:
* Sensitize supervisors about discriminatory harassment and their critical role.
* Reinforce that supervisors are responsible for identifying and helping to prevent discriminatory harassment in the workplace.
* Encourage workplace respect and courtesy. Supervisors must act as role-models which will improve productivity
* Create a workplace environment where potential victims of discriminatory harassment can discuss their concerns without legal retaliation.
In addition, this website is a California AB-1825 compliant harassment training program. This means that it meets the following criteria:
* Two hours long
* Effective and interactive
* Explain prohibitions against and the prevention and correction of illegal harassment
* Provide information and practical guidance to participants of the course
* Cover relevant federal and state laws
* Helps create a greater awareness for supervisors and employees so that they will be able to better understand the consequences of their actions
* Include practical examples to instruct supervisors in the prevention of workplace harassment, discrimination and retaliation; and describe remedies available to victims of those harassment.
* Obligate supervisors to identify potential problems and follow the discriminatory harassment policy
* Maintain effective communication emphasizing that an individual’s words may be received differently depending on the listener’s perspective
It is ideal for employees and supervisors. This new course is an ideal way to learn the skills identify and prevent these inappropriate harassment in the workplace before it’s too late.
