One-third of the 90,000 charges received by EEOC in fiscal year 2015 included an allegation of workplace harassment. The term “workplace harassment” often conjures images of 1950s-style gender-based pestering where men made women feel uncomfortable and powerless through comments and touch that would not fly in today’s workplace – “Mad Men” style. The issue has become much wider than just gender though, and is recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court. This means that education about and awareness of harassment should be a top priority for organizations. Training must change.

Indeed, a 2015 Benchmark Report on Ethics and Compliance, conducted by NAVEX Global , found that 53% of compliance training decision-makers listed having “limited hours” available for training as one of their top concerns. No matter the size of your company, there are going to be laws and regulations that mandate certain kinds of training. Companies have to stay in strict compliance with these mandates, or else face penalties. OSHA, for example, penalizes companies every year for lapses in required training or training inefficiencies.
