Sexual Harassment Training for Employees Certified Sexual Harassment Course Online Ireland

Sexual harassment can happen anywhere, but it is particularly prevalent in workplaces, and it rarely announces itself: a repeated comment about what somebody is wearing, a joke that keeps landing on the same person, a message that crosses a line after work hours. By the time it is called harassment, the damage to the person and to the workplace has usually already been done. The course takes that risk apart step by step, then shows you the controls that remove it. Three modules walk you through the whole subject from an employee's point of view: what sexual harassment actually means, the impact it has on people and the Irish laws that protect you, the danger zone behaviours and comments to look out for in the workplace, online and at work socials, and the policies and procedures that make reporting safe, from telling your manager to the formal grievance process. Real workplace scenarios keep every lesson practical and easy to relate to.

Section 14A is the short answer. The Employment Equality Acts 1998 to 2015 define sexual harassment as any form of unwanted verbal, non-verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that violates a person's dignity and creates an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment, and make the employer answerable for preventing it. Our course is written directly against that wording, which is why it satisfies the duty rather than merely gesturing at it.

Employees in all types of workplaces, whether in an office, retail space, hospitality venue, healthcare setting or worksite, plus the employers, HR teams, managers and supervisors responsible for them. It is written at an introductory level, so no previous knowledge is required.

The Sexual Harassment Training for Employees is €35.00 per person, and that is the full price. Team bookings get a volume discount applied automatically, and any 5 different courses cost just €100 flat (except our premium HACCP Level 3 and Health and Safety for Managers courses, which keep their own price), with one invoice and one account for all your records.

About 2 hours, and you do not have to do it in one sitting. Progress saves as you go, so you can stop after a lesson and pick it back up on another device. Your certificate is ready to download the moment you pass.

Renewal is recommended every three years, or sooner if your role, workplace policy or the law changes.

The refresher is the same short online course, so staying compliant never costs a working day.

Nothing bad. You can retake the exam as many times as you need at no extra cost, and you can revisit any lesson before trying again. Most learners pass first time, because the questions test exactly what the course just taught.

This course is assessed by examination rather than by a practical, because the competence it builds is judgement rather than technique. You get unlimited attempts at the exam, at no extra cost.

Everything an employee needs to recognise, prevent and report sexual harassment at work, across three modules: what is meant by the term sexual harassment, the behaviours and comments that are harassing, the impact on people and the laws that protect you; the danger zone behaviours to look out for in the workplace, online and at work socials, including quid pro quo harassment and harassment by third parties such as customers; and the policies and procedures every company should have in place, from the anti-harassment policy to reporting routes and the grievance process.

Sexual harassment at work is unlawful under the Employment Equality Acts 1998 to 2015, and an employer's defence depends on proving it took reasonably practicable steps to prevent it. The Code of Practice on Sexual Harassment and Harassment at Work, given legal effect by S.I. No. 208 of 2022, spells out what those steps look like: an effective policy, clear complaints procedures and communication and training for everyone. This course delivers and proves exactly that training.

The final test has 10 multiple choice questions drawn from all three modules, each with three answers to choose from. The pass mark is 80 percent, which means 8 correct answers out of 10. There is no clock running, and if the first attempt falls short you can revisit any module and retake the exam free of charge as many times as you need. The certificate is issued the moment you pass.

Instantly. The moment you pass the final test, the certificate is generated automatically, emailed to your inbox and saved on the Certificates page of your account. Most learners go from enrolment to a verifiable certificate in a single sitting of about 1 hour.

Employees in every industry and at every level: offices, retail, hospitality, healthcare, manufacturing, construction and everywhere in between, because sexual harassment can happen in any workplace. Employers, HR teams, managers and supervisors take it too, both for their own awareness and to show their teams that the standard applies to everyone. It is written at an introductory level, so no previous training is needed.

Yes. The course makes clear that sexual harassment is not confined to the office floor: it covers inappropriate comments and behaviour online, including social media, at offsite work events such as staff parties, and harassment from third parties such as customers, clients or members of the public. Behaviour connected to work can still be reported to your manager or HR even when it happens outside working hours, because it affects how comfortably people can work together.
