Illinois mandates Illinois sexual harassment training for all employers with at least one employee on staff. The objective of the training is to ensure that Illinois employees are aware of what constitutes sexual harassment, how to recognize it, how to report it, and how to address it effectively. The training should cover what constitutes sexual harassment and offer guidance on how to prevent and address such behavior. Employers must provide this training annually and within 90 days of an employee’s hire date. Illinois employers may choose to conduct the training in an online or in-person format. In-person training must be interactive and allow for questions and discussion. Failing to comply with the Illinois sexual harassment training requirements may result in legal consequences for employers.
