  1. Employee Harassment Training Programs for Safer Environment in Workplace If you are a working professional, you know that 8 to 9 hours of your day belongs to others. Those few hours are shared with the colleagues, customers or clients. Regardless of the industry, position, gender or even the time of the day, one thing that needs your immediate attention is - sexual harassment in the workplace. Online sexual harassment training programs help an individual understand the questionable behavior that could lead to harassment. What is sexual harassment in the workplace? Sexual harassment can be defined as any unwelcome sexual advance or conduct in the workplace that creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment for anyone. Unfortunately, sexual harassment is more prevalent in the workplace than some of us would like to admit. It is not limited to just touching or assaulting movements, but there are various other types of harassment as well: • Verbal harassment, verbal sexual advances or propositions • Demeaning comments about coworkers of a sexual nature • Sexually explicit jokes or language • Any sexual conduct • Offering employment benefits in exchange for sexual favors • Making sexual gestures, cartoons or posters. There are various other types of harassment as well. This is the reason that more and more companies are taking a stand against it and infusing an employee harassment training program. Why should your organization go for this training program? A sexual harassment training program is one of the most practical ways to prevent harassment. A well-designed training program acts as a substantial step towards eliminating sexual harassment from the workplace. If not total elimination, it makes sure that the damages are minimized. The sexual harassment training program seeks to arm the employees with resources for identifying questionable behavior that could lead to harassment. This program makes sure that all the employees feel safe, protected, and supported by their superiors and coworkers. The final aim of an online sexual harassment training program is to align the entire workforce against harassment. It is only when your employees know what is expected of them and what is expected of the management in return, are they more likely to feel comfortable and safe at work.
