Illinois Harassment Training for Employees

Note: This course is a state-specific course designed to meet the needs of most employers in Illinois. However, this course alone will not meet the "supplemental" training requirements found under Section 2-110 of the Illinois Human Rights Act for restuarant or bar workers in Illinois. If you are located in the following states, you must take the state-specific courses found in the following links: Maine, California, Connecticut, or Delaware. If you are outside of these states, you should take our "universal" training course for employees.

This approximately one-hour course is designed to meet or exceed the minimum standards for both federal and state harassment and sexual harassment training requirements.

Help create a welcoming work culture through an informed workforce prepared to prevent, address, or resolve harassment in the workplace. Federal and state legislatures have recognized the profound need for employers to take an active role in preventing and appropriately addressing concerns over workplace harassment, sexual harassment, and bullying.

This interactive course replete with periodic knowledge checks to verify engagement has been designed to keep employees actively engaged in the material for long-term retention of substantive and procedural knowledge and skills necessary to prevent and address harassment in the workplace.

The Workplace Harassment Training for Employees course is a one-hour interactive online course designed to comply with federal workplace harassment training requirements and training requirements for most employers in the State of Illinois under Section 2-109 of the Illinois Human Rights Act (775 ILCS 5/2-109). In accordance with the Illinois Human Rights Act, this course incorporates critical elements of the model sexual harassment prevention training program to meet and exceed the minimum requirements under Illinois law for sexual harassment prevention training programs including:

An explanation of sexual harassment under Illinois law and the IHRA;
Examples of conduct constituting unlawful sexual harassment;
A summary of relevent federal and State statutory provisions concerning sexual harassment, including remedies available to victims of sexual harassment; and
A summary of responsibilities of employers in the prevention, investigation, and corrective measures of sexual harassment.

This course should be used as part of a comprehensive training strategy incorporating a brief training on your company's policy on workplace harassment as well as Workplace Harassment Training for Supervisors course and Bystander Intervention Training.

While this course is comprehensive and meets the requirements of most states, if you must comply with the state-specific requirements of the following states, you must enroll in the state-specific harassment training course for the respective state, found in the links below:

Maine,
California,
Connecticut, and
Delaware.

Upon course completion, employees will be able to:

Define harassment and sexual harassment;
Understand state and federal laws prohibiting harassment and sexual harassment;

Synthesize examples of workplace harassment and sexual harassment;
Analyze difficult situations and determine to appropriately prevent and correct harassment and sexual harassment;
