May 31, 2024 | Mark Hudson
Traliant, an innovator in online compliance training, today announced the addition of two new courses to its comprehensive training suite, Preventing Workplace Harassment and Bystander Intervention. Designed to create a culture of accountability and support, Traliant’s new courses also enable employers to stay compliant with the latest guidance from local governments and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
It’s projected that over half of employees (52%) have witnessed or experienced sexual harassment in the workplace. In addition to creating a hostile work environment, workplace harassment can have detrimental effects on an employer’s profitability – its estimated that misconduct costs U.S. businesses $20 billion in rehiring alone.
Traliant’s Preventing Workplace Harassment training educates learners on how to recognize, de-escalate, and prevent all forms of workplace harassment and discrimination, while taking into account the unique training needs required by different industries. With seven industry-specific variations tailored to construction, healthcare, hotels, manufacturing/industrial, offices, restaurants and retail spaces, the training is fully customizable and compliant with state and local harassment training laws across all 50 states. Course training is also available in a Global edition, as well as Canada, UK, India and Australia editions.
