EmploymentQuestion 1061 of 1632

New nonsupervisory employees at a company with five or more employees must receive the required sexual-harassment prevention training within:

a.Three years of hire, then every five years
b.Six months of hire, then every two years
c.Their first day of work, and never again
d.One week of leaving the company's employ

Explanation

Government Code §12950.1 requires at least one hour of interactive sexual harassment prevention training for every nonsupervisory employee within six months of hire and every two years thereafter, and two hours for supervisors within six months of assuming supervisory duties, at any employer with five or more employees. (c) is the one-and-done belief, which is how a great many small employers actually operate - the training is treated as an onboarding item rather than a recurring obligation, and the two-year clock is what they miss. (a) stretches both figures. (d) attaches training to separation, which is backwards. Seasonal and temporary employees expected to work fewer than six months are trained within 30 calendar days or 100 hours worked.

Law Reference: Government Code §12950.1(a), (b)
