PUBLIC OFFLS/EMPS: Provides relative to mandatory training on the prevention of sexual harassment
HB 65 requires all Louisiana public employees to complete one hour of annual sexual harassment prevention training during their employment, and elected officials to complete one hour of such training during each term in office. The bill amends existing law to mandate this training, directly affecting state and local government workers and elected representatives. Key provisions specify the duration (one hour yearly for employees, one hour per term for officials) and focus on prevention education. The bill does not create new penalties or funding but establishes a recurring training requirement for covered individuals. (Note: As a procedural amendment to training requirements, this summary is concise per the bill's nature.)
