Quick UK question

Do companies have those mandatory sexual harassment seminars over there? (They purport to teach what is considered appropriate behavior in the workplace.)

eta- If it were called a course instead, would it work better in your mind?

Not in the NHS. We have an equality/whistle blowing/bullying policy but telling people about it is not part of the yearly mandatory training. We *do* have assertiveness workshops and the like so you could could find a way of bringing it in call it a course, study day or a workshop rather than a seminar though.
If you're interested yearly mandatory training includes
Moving and handling
basic life support
fire lectures
infection control updates
falls policy updates
Confidentiality and data protection

and probably lots more that I can't remember.

We also had a nice bloke from outside come in and do a day about 'shared leadership' which was great fun and involved string handcuffs.
