Los Angeles Attorney Breaks Down Sexual Harassment Training Laws for Agricultural Industry

Los Angeles Partner Andrew J. Hoag discusses the new California law on sexual harassment training requirements in his bylined article for California Ag Net titled “New Law Requires California AG Employers to Provide Sexual Harassment Training.” Andrew explains that the new law requires all employers with five or more employees must provide at least two hours of sexual harassment training to all supervisory employees and at least one hour of sexual harassment training to all employees.

Andrew warns agricultural employers that failure to comply with the law could have significant legal implications if an employee files a claim for sexual harassment or failure to prevent harassment. He encourages employers to work with legal counsel to ensure compliance with the new law before it takes effect in 2020.
