At Inscope Training, we have created two industry-specific Sexual Harassment in the Workplace Awareness courses. Each course will equip employees and employers with the knowledge and skills to identify and understand what sexual harassment is and when it is defined as taking place in a workplace, their responsibilities, the impact of sexual harassment, and what it means to be an active bystander.
