Is SB-1343 training transferable between employers?

A new employee completed SB-1343 training with a prior employer. Or, a worker takes a new/second job, or moves between joint employers.  Is retraining required, or is SB-1343 training transferable between employers?

The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) recently clarified what should happen when an employee has received training in compliance with SB-1343 (also referred to as 12950.1) within the prior two years either from a current, a prior or alternate, or a joint employer.  As we expected, the goal is that employees should NOT have to repeat the training just because they moved employers.

This is good news for employers and employees alike.

The DFEH says that to remain compliant, employers should do the following:

• Ensure that the new employee has fulfilled the training requirement, which may require verifying compliance from the prior, alternate, or joint employer.

• Provide the new employee a copy of the employer’s anti-harassment policy, require the employee to read it, and require them to acknowledge receipt of it.

The timeframe for completing these steps is within six months of a supervisors’ assuming their supervisory position, or within six months of the creation of a new business or the expansion of a business that was previously not required to provide training.

The DFEH did not state a timeframe for verification and acknowledgement of non-supervisory employees, but completion within the same timeframe as training a new hire is recommended.

How does California Required Training Solutions support the transfer of SB-1343 training between employers?

California Required Training Solutions makes transfer verification easy by issuing each student completing our training with a logo certificate stating the student’s name, the title of the course indicating SB-1343 compliance, and the role trained, as well as the date the training was completed.  Certificates contain a unique issuance number.  Certificate number validation is supported by our certificate validator widget.

Students completing our training are urged to retain a copy of their certificate at home in case they should need it in future.

Students have the ability to log in to their student account and re-download or re-print copies of their certificates, so long as California Required Training Solutions retains their data (we are subject to some data privacy and data retention laws). 

California Required Training Solutions also posts detailed curricula online so that employers can see  the topics covered in our trainings.  We remain available for employers’ questions on registrar@calreq.com or via telephone at (747) 284-2132.

Workers desiring to avoid retraining should feel free to print this page, and provide it to their new employer together with a copy of their certificate.
