AccountingEd Launches Comprehensive Sexual Harassment Training for

Organizations

Amid recent walkouts by Google employees for the company's handling of sexual harassment,
AccountingEd releases sexual harassment training for today's modern workplace.

Redmond, WA, November 01, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Each day brings a heightened sense of awareness
across the globe as stories continue to surface regarding sexual assault. The #MeToo movement has
brought the longstanding issue to the forefront of societal attention. Companies are being called to change
how they handle sexual harassment in the workplace. Now, employees are taking a stronger stand against
sexual harassment, such as the Google employees staging walkouts around the world to protest extremely
generous severance packages of executives convicted of sexual harassment. Also, executives of
high-profile companies such as Uber are being forced to resign amid sexual assault allegations. It is more
important than ever to ensure that organizations staff (employees and managers) are trained to be aware
of what constitutes sexual harassment. AccountingEd has designed comprehensive training for all
members in the workforce (long term employees, millennials, and managers) to educate them on what
sexual harassment is and how to identify, prevent, react, and report sexual harassment in the workplace.

Sexual harassment in the workplace is a pervasive issue that has only recently been given the coverage
and attention it requires. Nineteen percent, or one-in-five, of American adults have experienced sexual
harassment at work (per All-America Economic Survey by CNBC) and seventy-five percent of sexual
harassment victims have experienced retaliation upon speaking up about it (per U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission).

This new, global focus on the issue has shown that it spans across industries, countries and has caused
some states to create new regulations forcing companies to be more proactive about addressing it.
Maryland, Delaware and New York state have already put sexual harassment training and policy
mandates into effect. To eradicate the issue, companies and institutions need to attack the problem at its
roots and proper training is a critical component of ensuring a safe work environment for all employees.

For this reason, “organizational leaders have to model that behavior and they have to reinforce it with
their mission, their vision, their objectives, and, yes, through training as well.”
- Dr. Eden King, associate professor at Rice University

AccountingEd's Sexual Harassment Training is not a one-and-done solution. It's a comprehensive training
solution that aims to help change company culture from the top down. The package includes employee
training, manager training, and by-stander intervention training that doesn't only talk about legality, but

and examples of real situations and discussions. It goes beyond employee awareness, mitigating the risk
of compliant breaches and protecting organizations' reputations. AccountingEd's Sexual Harassment
Training encourages a better workplace culture where all employees can thrive. The employee training
