These modules are designed to help employees and managers recognize what constitutes workplace harassment or discrimination and how to proactively prevent it. They cover the different forms harassment can take (not just blatant abuse, but also subtle or "joking" behaviors that create a hostile environment) and emphasize that zero tolerance is the standard. Trainees learn how to intervene or report incidents – for example, the modules often include guidance for bystanders on how to safely speak up or how to use the company's reporting channels. There's also education on protected characteristics (so everyone understands that things like race, gender, religion, age, etc., cannot be basis for negative treatment) and on unconscious biases that might lead to discrimination if unchecked. By walking through scenarios (like a supervisor making inappropriate remarks, or an employee being excluded from projects due to bias) and showing the correct responses, the modules build the skills and awareness needed to maintain a respectful, inclusive workplace.
