As part of our ongoing effort to build a safe, welcoming, and supportive workplace for every King County employee, this fall we are offering training for all King County employees, which includes a short video and an online course, on reporting processes, roles, and responsibilities under the County’s Nondiscrimination, Anti-Harassment & Inappropriate Conduct Policy, Procedures and Responsibilities.

As a member of our organization, you have a defined role in the Nondiscrimination, Anti-Harassment & Inappropriate Conduct Policy to prevent, report, and act on behavior that is not in line with our expectations of employees. The policy applies to all employees in Executive Branch departments, offices, divisions, and agencies, including the Assessor’s Office, Elections, and the Sheriff’s Office.

The training is now available and is being assigned to all Executive Branch staff with County email and access to a computer. You will soon receive an email from NEOGOV with the subject line: Required training – Preventing Harassment and Discrimination. It will contain instructions on how to complete the training in NEOGOV Learn. The training will take approximately two hours to finish, so please plan accordingly.

The training must be completed by March 30, 2022. If you are an hourly employee, you should complete the training during your regular work hours. You can use one of several internet browsers to access the training, including Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox.

If you have further questions about the policy or the training, please contact your department’s HR Manager.
