• California supervisors (two hours) and nonsupervisory employees (one hour), including California-based remote workers
• Newly hired or promoted employees (within six months)
• Seasonal and temporary employees hired directly to work for less than six months — within 30 calendar days after their hire date or within 100 hours worked, whichever occurs first.

As a best practice, employers should also train out-of-state supervisors and employees who interact with California employees. When counting employees to determine if you’re required to provide harassment prevention training, be sure to count staff located outside of California, part-time and temporary direct hires, independent contractors, as well as unpaid interns and volunteers.

No one in the workplace should be uncomfortable, afraid or unwelcome by someone else. What was said, how it was said, or when or where it was said, doesn’t change a person’s experience.
