Frankly, seems like Uber and any large workspace should have regular company wide training on appropriate workplace behavior, before it's an issue for anyone.

Frankly, seems like Uber and any large workspace should have regular company wide training on appropriate workplace behavior, before it's an issue for anyone. You get the culture you create.
- wpietri 10y agoTraining isn't entirely useless, but it's a pretty small part of preventing problems like this. It's not like her manager didn't know that hitting on his employees was wrong. He didn't do it out of ignorance. He did it because he could get away with it.
- walshemj 10y agoThe point of the training is to stop the employee saying I didn't know it was wrong
- wpietri 10y agoDid somebody say that here? And don't most companies cover this stuff during orientation and in the staff manual? Even if they don't, so what if employees claim ignorance? There are a whole host of firing offenses that professionals are expected to know without being told. "Nobody told me I couldn't punch my boss," is not a reasonable excuse.
- nowarninglabel 10y agoThat training is actually mandated by the state of California by AB 1825 for employers with > 50 employees. If they were not having regular harassment training for supervisors then they were breaking the law.
