STATE LAW MANDATES
DELAWARE HB 360 MANDATE
Starting on January 1, 2019, Delaware will require employers with 50 or more employees (unlike other states, this total number doesn’t include contractors) to provide sexual harassment prevention training. This interactive course must address the illegality and definition of sexual harassment. Additionally, legal remedies must be described with directions on how to contact the Delaware Department of Labor. Lastly, the training must inform all employees that retaliation is illegal.
The interactive course must be provided to all employees and supervisors within one year of employment, or by January 1, 2020, for existing workers. In other words, employers must have everyone trained with the exception of independent contractors, employees of less than six months, or temporary workers. After the original course is completed, training must be repeated every two years.
Employers must provide additional training to supervisors that includes the specific responsibilities of a managers role in the prevention and correction of sexual harassment as well as legal consequences of retaliation.

NEW TO HARASSMENT LAW
Has everyone at your company who’s required to take a sexual harassment training course had the opportunity to do so? Running a business requires numerous moving parts and people in different places all at once, which means that training shouldn't be anyone's full time job. That’s why online harassment training makes perfect sense for all kinds of organizations. At Impact Compliance, our online sexual harassment training provides a scalable and efficient interactive education that meets all state requirements, including harassment compliance training in Delaware.
Federal workplace harassment and discrimination prevention statutes contend that each employer should provide awareness training to employees. However, select states, including Maine, Connecticut, and Delaware, have their own specific mandates to follow. Some regulations require training every two years, while others demand it annually.
Furthermore, the size of the organization affects who must be trained. Before implementing a sexual harassment prevention training in your business, you’ll need to understand your state's requirements. Please contact us today to receive a free course trial.
