Recently, Western Growers' HR Learning and Development Manager Anna Bilderbach delivered Harassment Prevention training to WG members in Orange Cove, CA, including Sanger Citrus, Mulholland Citrus, and Booth Ranches. As previously reported in spotlight, on August 15, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Senate Bill (SB) 778, which updates the state’s sexual harassment training requirements.
With this new law, employers with five or more employees are required to provide the following:
SB 778 permits employers who have provided training to an employee in 2019 to offer a “refresher” training to that employee two years thereafter (rather than the January 2021 deadline). This will avoid forcing employers who have already provided compliant training from having to do so twice in a single two-year period.
Western Growers offers its members supervisory training through both public and private sessions. Supervisors can participate in one of our upcoming Public Sessions:
Please contact Anna Bilderbach at (949) 379-3889 for additional information or to schedule onsite private sessions today.
