Live Harassment Training for Managers
The Firm offers optional live harassment prevention training for managers, supervisors, and owners. In Illinois, all employees must receive harassment prevention training within the calendar year of their hire. For employees working in Chicago, training must be completed within 90 days of hire. The Firm recommends managers be trained within the shortest applicable deadline to ensure compliance with state and local law. These sessions are designed to create a legally privileged, judgment-free environment for management teams to reflect on workplace risks, clarify their legal obligations, and discuss real-life scenarios. Live training is particularly valuable for organizations that have not previously conducted harassment prevention training or that have not yet engaged their leadership in conversation around how current or past employee conflicts might have implicated the harassment policy. These sessions often surface concerns employees were previously uncomfortable reporting.
