SEXUAL HARASSMENT – INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS NOW TO RECEIVE ANTI-HARASSMENT TRAINING
Recently, the New York City Commission on Human Rights amended its guidance to require employers in New York City to provide sexual harassment prevention training to its independent contractors and freelancers.
Initially, the guidance under the Stop Sexual Harassment Act contained Frequently Asked Questions (“FAQs”) that required NYC employers with fifteen or more employees to train their independent contractors, but that guidance was later reversed to not require such training.
