HR & Compliance, 15 minutes, self-paced
Sexual Harassment Prevention
A general overview of sexual harassment at work: how the EEOC defines it, when unwelcome conduct becomes frequent or severe enough to be illegal, the difference between quid pro quo and a hostile work environment, and when an employer is liable under Title VII for a supervisor's or a coworker's conduct. It is an overview only and points you to your employee handbook for the policies that actually apply to you, which the company may interpret, revise, or rescind at any time.
Part of the compliance library: free for every employee at any company size.

- Distinguish quid pro quo harassment from a hostile work environment
- Identify when an employer is liable for harassment committed by a supervisor and when it is liable for harassment by a coworker
