Avoiding Sexual Harassment
 
Welcome to the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (Refresher) Self-Training. Employees who satisfactorily complete this training and pass the test will be certified as having met the training requirements and will receive two hours training credit for this fiscal year.
Objectives

When you complete the program your ability to define sexual harassment, identify language and behaviors that may constitute sexual harassment and explain why a reasonable person might honestly regard some behaviors (including acts that might previously have been thought of as harmless flirting) as sexual harassment will be enhanced.

An underlying objective of the program is to eliminate uncertainties about sexual remarks and behavior in the workplace. The course assumes that when people know which physical, verbal and non-verbal behaviors might be considered sexual harassment (and are aware of the consequences of those behaviors) they will avoid them. If you supervise others, you will be more attentive and responsive to indications that sexual harassment may be a problem in your workgroup.
