Sexual Harassment Prevention in Connecticut for Non-Supervisors 2-Hour Course: Part 1

Sexual harassment is extremely serious. Its effects can be felt at any level of an organization and tend to seriously diminish both employee morale and work performance. Many states have created specific laws for preventing sexual harassment in the workplace, and Connecticut is one of those states. This course is the first part of a four-part series on preventing sexual harassment for non-supervisory employers in Connecticut.

This first part aims to inform anybody employed within the state of Connecticut about sexual harassment, legislation that protects them at both the state and federal level, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This video teaches employees about harassment in its various forms (quid pro quo and hostile environment), techniques to report the behavior, consequences of the behavior, and case law, such as Faragher vs. City of Boca Raton, that have shaped how the matter is dealt with today.

Utilize this course with all new employees in your organization to foster an equal and informed understanding of this incredibly serious problem, demonstrating your zero-tolerance approach to the issue. Employees must complete all four parts to comply with the law, so be sure to continue with Part 2.
