EDCOMM BANKER’S ACADEMY UPDATES INVESTMENT BANKING SEXUAL HARASSMENT TRAINING PROGRAM FOR 2010
(NEW YORK, NY) - July 21, 2010
Edcomm Banker’s Academy has made recent updates to its Investment Banking Sexual Harassment training program for 2010. Focus on Sexual Harassment for Investment Banking has been revised as part of Edcomm Banker’s Academy’s ongoing commitment to providing the most up-to-date and pertinent financial services information as the banking industry enters a new decade.
Financial institutions lose millions of dollars each year due to sexual harassment complaints and the decreased employee morale and increased absenteeism that occurs as a result. However, banks can reduce the risk of sexual harassment by creating a work environment that is fair and respectful and a staff that knows what is and is not considered acceptable behavior in the workplace. Banks that properly train all investment banking employees, including staff and management, on the detection and prevention of sexual harassment will minimize risk and increase the productivity and morale of their team.
Focus on Sexual Harassment for Investment Banking, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is a computer-based, distance-learning program, can be delivered via Internet, Intranet or CD. The program teaches sexual harassment compliance training using easy-to-understand language in an interactive, self-paced format. Topics include: What Is a Fair and Respectful Workplace?, Federal and State EEO Laws, Types of Harassment, What to do if Harassment Occurs, Retaliation, and Supervisor Responsibilities, among others. The program includes a quick reference guide to all regulations, as well as a searchable library of materials.
