The Importance of Sexual Harassment Training
Sexual harassment training has such a negative connotation in the corporate world. It’s seen as outdated, unnecessary, ineffective and in some cases just plain offensive, but it’s also a necessity in today’s environment.
Sexual harassment training can not just help you avoid costly lawsuits or penalties from the federal government, but it can also strengthen your workplace. When people feel as if they’re in an environment that’s unprofessional or lacking in general standards, their quality of work is likely to suffer as a result. An environment that does nothing to discourage, prevent or punish sexual harassment is also one where productivity may suffer, as employees are distracted with the unprofessionalism surrounding them. It can be damaging to both your employer brand and your overall identity if word starts circulating your workplace is one that isn’t professional, or could be considered a hostile work environment.
