Over the past decade, several key legal developments have compelled employers to embrace mandatory harassment, discrimination and ethics training for the entire workforce. ELT, a leading provider of online compliance training solutions, has developed a new interactive chart to help viewers quickly navigate and understand the complex legal landscape of compliance training requirements.

The chart details each of the requirements and their significance in the current legal landscape, including:

* Supreme Court decisions
* EEOC guidelines
* Sarbanes-Oxley
* Federal Sentencing Guidelines
* State harassment training laws (the chart features a 50-state survey), including California’s AB 1825.

"With so many different laws and regulations, it’s hard for employers to understand their true mandatory training requirements," said Shanti Atkins, President & CEO of ELT. "We see organizations that are frequently confused by sales and marketing messages designed to sell a high volume of training licenses. In reality, all employers, regardless of size or industry, are most impacted by a few, select requirements tied to harassment and discrimination prevention, as well as ethics. We hope this new chart will help people easily understand their obligations and more importantly, avoid litigation."
