In January 2018, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed into law that all employers be compliant in sexual harassment training for their employees. This includes all employers that have one or more employees at their farm or business. Each business should have had a policy in place and training completed by Oct. 9, 2019.
If you are not in compliance with this law, plan to attend one of these trainings.
Join us for up-to-date farm-focused training materials (English and Spanish) as well as tips on how to conduct a successful farm-based sexual harassment meeting.
Registration is $25/per farm, which will include a USB for each farm, as well as printed materials.
This training is for employers only. CNYDLFC team members will not be training employees. All farms must bring a copy of their sexual harassment policy and complaint form to participate.For more information, contact Nicole at 315.867.6001 or nt375@cornell.edu.
