Frequently asked questions

Which Delaware employers must provide sexual harassment training?
Delaware's anti-sexual harassment law (19 Del. Code § 711A) requires employers with 50 or more employees to provide interactive sexual harassment prevention training. Smaller employers are not subject to the training mandate but are still prohibited from sexual harassment under Delaware law.
How often must employees complete Delaware sexual harassment training?
Delaware requires all employees to complete training within 1 year of hire, and then every 2 years thereafter (19 Del. Code § 711A). Supervisors must also complete training within 1 year of assuming supervisory responsibilities and every 2 years thereafter. This is a fixed statutory cycle, not a discretionary cadence.
When must supervisors complete Delaware sexual harassment training?
Supervisors must receive interactive training within 1 year of assuming supervisory responsibilities. Delaware's law recognizes that supervisors carry additional obligations and must be trained on their specific reporting duties.
What makes AWI Training compliant with Delaware's interactive requirement?
Delaware requires training to be interactive, allowing employees to ask questions and receive answers. AWI Training satisfies this through Zee-Bot scenario-based assessments and an interactive quiz after each video training module — both require active participation and produce a scored behavioral record.
What topics must Delaware sexual harassment training cover?
Delaware's model training covers: the definition of sexual harassment, types of sexual harassment (quid pro quo and hostile work environment), examples of prohibited conduct, the employer's internal complaint process, available remedies through the Delaware Department of Labor and EEOC, the prohibition on retaliation, and supervisor-specific reporting obligations.
Does Delaware require a written anti-harassment policy?
Delaware law (19 Del. Code § 711A) does not mandate a written anti-sexual harassment policy. The mandatory written obligation under Delaware law is that employers with 4 or more employees must distribute the state Sexual Harassment Notice to all new hires. Maintaining a written anti-harassment policy is strongly recommended as an affirmative legal defense, but it is not a statutory requirement for employers with 50 or more employees.
