In 2019, the Illinois General Assembly enacted, and Governor Pritzker signed into law, P.A. 101-0221, containing sweeping new measures to combat workplace harassment. (Our earlier summaries are available here.) One of the new requirements in that law was a mandate that all Illinois employers provide anti-harassment training at least annually to all employees beginning in 2020. The law directed the Illinois Department of Human Rights (IDHR) to develop a model anti-harassment training program that employers could use for this purpose. Until recently, the IDHR had given no indication as to when this model training would be available.
