Episode Details

Many employers think discrimination and harassment training is something you do once, check off the list, and move on. The reality? Employment law, technology, workplace dynamics, and employee expectations are constantly evolving—and your training should too.

In this episode of L4L Book Club, Pam Howland, Jennifer Walrath, and Doug Plass discuss why ongoing training is one of the best investments employers can make. They cover:

•  Why the law expects regular training 
•  How changing laws and EEOC guidance impact employers 
•  The role of AI, technology, and social media in today's workplace 
•  Why supervisors need different (and more in-depth) training than employees 
•  How consistent training helps prevent claims, strengthens workplace culture, and keeps employers out of court 

If you've ever wondered whether annual training is really worth the investment, this episode makes the case.
