Training Requirements
SB 1343 training has more specific requirements than most employers expect — the hour counts are the easy part. Here's everything that actually needs to be true for training to count.
Non-Supervisory Employees
1 hour of training, once every 2 years
Supervisors
2 hours of training, once every 2 years — this is a legally distinct track, not just "the same training but longer"
New Hires
Within 6 months of hire (supervisors) or as soon as reasonably possible (non-supervisory)
Interactivity Requirement
Training must include a practical, interactive component — and the law is specific about what that means: employees need a real opportunity to ask questions and get answers within a reasonable time. A video with no one to respond does not satisfy 2 CCR § 11024(a)(2)(F).
Why Live, Facilitated Training
This is the actual reason self-paced-only training is legally risky: the interactivity requirement effectively calls for a professional who can respond in real time. Live remote sessions satisfy this directly — that's the format used here, for both tracks.
How This Gets Delivered
Training here is delivered live, remotely, by a real facilitator — not a pre-recorded module. That directly satisfies the interactivity requirement above, since employees can ask questions and get real answers during the session itself. You'll also get the written policy, complaint form, and acknowledgment forms that need to accompany the training.
