of workplace sexual harassment in California. It
has become an issue that no employer can
ignore. However, there are a few things every
employer should do in order to investigate the
sexual harassment in the workplace. Listed below

help the investigation.

Understand What Sexual Harassment is
There are man actions that could
constitute sexual harassment. Some of them

jokes

In California, every employer with 50 or more
employees has to provide his or her employees
with 2 hours of sexual training. This is done in
order to recognize such behavior early and
prevent it from happening.

should be investigated immediately

Check For Validity
The worst thing an employer could do is ignore
the sexual harassment claim. By choosing not to
do anything about it, you become an accomplice
and will be responsible for what comes next. To
prevent that, every employer should immediately
start the investigation. But first things first,
in order to make any progress, every employer
should check the validity of the claim. It all
starts by speaking with the person who filed the
claim and asking them why they filed it, why
didnt they say anything about it, and for how
long has it been going on. Upon receiving
answers to these questions, every employer should
be able to conduct a proper investigation.
