Meeting/Event Information

Sexual Harassment Awareness & Abusive Conduct Prevention         

The Desert Communities EAC is a non profit organization dedicated to keeping California business informed on workforce laws and human resource issues.  We are an event partner with the Employment Development Department.

Legislation passed under SB1343 requires employers with five or more employees to provide two hours of sexual harassment awareness and abusive conduct prevention training to all supervisory employees.   Help your employees understand what sexual harassment and abusive conduct is, where it can happen, who it can happen to, and the possible consequences for all involved. Join William Betley with Atkinson, Andelson, Loya, Ruud & Romo and complete your mandated training before the end of the year.

Attendees will learn:

1. Hear that the pandemic has created some unique bullying issues and inappropriate behavior (not just blatantly offensive behavior) in both the on-site and virtual workplace and tips to address/avoid such behaviors.
2. Understand the best ways to assist your organization and you individually to minimize risk associated with harassment claims.
3. Learn about bystander assistance in harassing situations.
4. Receive a certificate of completion within in a few weeks.
