Scope of Discussion. This publication examines the legal foundation of employment law training programs in the workplace. Such training may be a defense to harassment claims under Title VII or a means to prevent the award of punitive damages. Some states have instituted mandatory training statutes, which may act to create a national standard for an employer covered under one of those statutes that also operates in multiple states. Additionally, various federal statutes may create specialized training requirements for employers. The discussion also covers areas of risk for employers to consider when designing employment law training programs and provides recommendations for instituting an effective training program.
