Employers: sexual harassment training: requirements.\n\nThe California Fair Employment and Housing Act makes specified employment practices unlawful\, including the harassment of an employee directly by the employer or indirectly by agents of the employer with the employer's knowledge. Under existing law\, the Department of Fair Employment and Housing administers these provisions. Existing law\, by January 1\, 2020\, requires an employer with 5 or more employees to provide at least 2 hours of classroom or other effective interactive training and education regarding sexual harassment to all supervisory employees and at least 1 hour of classroom or other effective interactive training and education regarding sexual harassment to all nonsupervisory employees in California within 6 months of their assumption of a position.

The bill would require new nonsupervisory employees to be provided the training within 6 months of hire and new supervisory employees to be provided the training within 6 months of the assumption of a supervisory position. The bill would also specify that an employer who has provided this training and education in 2019 is not required to provide it again until 2 years thereafter.
