Western Growers University is offering employers throughout California and Arizona the latest Preventing Discrimination and Harassment training.

The California Fair Employment and Housing Act requires employers, with five or more employees, to provide supervisors with two hours of training, and employees with one hour, as it relates to the following:

• Discrimination
• Harassment
• Abusive Conduct
• Hostile Work Environment
• Quid Pro Quo
• Retaliation

Next week, Western Growers will be offering a cadre of training courses that will not only demonstrate how to address these issues but show you how to proactively turn potential situations into productive opportunities that will impact your culture and motivate your workforce.

In this workshop, business owners, managers and frontline workers will learn how to deal with real workspace issues. You will leave this workshop understanding how to:

• Comply with both federal and state mandates;

• Gain a better understanding as to what is acceptable workplace behavior and what is not;
• Differentiate between harassment and performance coaching; and
• Proactively address harassment, bullying and retaliation.

Managers will also learn:

• How to properly address complaints;
• How to understand the importance of documentation and the costly consequences of retaliation; and
• How to complete a fair, unbiased, and thorough investigation.

Who should attend which workshop?

• Managers – Individuals who have direct reports and/or affect the work of others. Learn the basic rules and definitions of harassment, and how to address issues
• Employees – Individuals with no direct reports
