Requires restaurant employees to receive periodic sexual harassment training.
This bill requires restaurants employing 15 or more people to provide periodic sexual harassment training to all employees, including owners working as staff. Training must cover industry-specific topics, include separate sessions for supervisors and staff, be interactive with practical examples, and explain how to file complaints - offered in English and Spanish. Restaurants must also adopt a written sexual harassment policy included in employee handbooks. Failure to comply results in fines up to $500 for the first violation and $1,000 for subsequent offenses. Documentation of training is required, with failure to provide it creating a rebuttable presumption that training was not completed.
