TrainingBriefs® Recognizing & Preventing Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment is still a serious workplace issue with clear legal and policy expectations. Understanding personal responsibility, professional boundaries, and when to take action helps protect individuals and supports a respectful, compliant work environment.

• Impact matters, not intent. Even “jokes” can make someone uncomfortable—be mindful of how your actions are received.
• Act professionally and respect boundaries. Avoid gestures, comments, or behavior that could be seen as offensive.
• Address or report issues promptly. Early action can prevent harassment from escalating and helps the company respond.
