Course Overview

The City of Chicago's Human Rights Ordinance mandates that all employers with employees in Chicago provide one hour of annual sexual harassment training. This requirement ensures a workplace free of harassment, fostering a safer and more inclusive environment. To help businesses comply with the training portion of the law, this course has been developed to cover key legal and practical topics on sexual harassment prevention. 

This one-hour course breaks down the complexities of sexual harassment laws into seven manageable sections. You’ll learn about the fundamentals of federal and Illinois state laws that protect employees from harassment, and the importance of understanding your rights and obligations as an employee or employer. We also focus on other critical areas like retaliation, which is illegal and can result from reporting harassment, as well as harassment and discrimination based on gender identity and pregnancy. 

Additionally, the course will cover modern concerns like electronic harassment, addressing how today’s technology can be misused to create hostile work environments. The final section provides information on how to file complaints and seek remedies when harassment or discrimination occurs, empowering employees with knowledge on the steps they can take for resolution.
