According to the NYS Division of Human Rights, in legislative testimony provided earlier this month, sexual harassment complaints made to the Division have increased 62% since 2016.
Plus, this gigantic increase in complaints occurred before every employee in the State received training as to their rights when either being a victim of sexual harassment or being retaliated against for attempting to stop harassment.
Remember - every employer must train their employees before October 9, 2019 per Labor Law 201-g.
Failure to train is a misdemeanor and will be the kiss of death when trying to defend the company against a complaint of sex discrimination.
