California Sexual Harassment Training Required For All Employees

California state law requires employers with at least five employees to provide sexual harassment training every two years for all employees located in California. Since 2005, California law AB 1825 has required employers with 50 or more employees to provide sexual harassment training for supervisors in California. Senate Bill 1343, which was signed into law on September 30, 2018, expanded the requirement to require employers with at least five employees to train all employees. SB 1343 also provides guidance on the content and length of the training that must be provided.

When is the deadline to provide sexual harassment training to all employees in California?

SB 1343 initially set a deadline for all covered employees to be trained by January 1, 2020. However, on August 30, 2019, California enacted SB 778, which extended the initial deadline to train all employees by one year until January 1, 2021. Employers must train all employees by that date and then every two years therefter. Employers that provide training in 2019 are “not required to provide refresher training and education again until two years thereafter.” According to the California Department of Fair Employment & Housing (DFEH), an employer that trains its employees in 2019 must retrain two years later (before January 1, 2022).
