How to Proctor a Sexual Harassment Prevention Test Online

California SB 1343 spells out exact training hours: employers with 5 or more employees must give non-supervisory staff 1 hour of sexual harassment prevention training every 2 years, and supervisors 2 hours every 2 years, with new hires trained within 6 months (temp or seasonal workers within 30 days or 100 hours worked, whichever comes first). The law does not mandate a specific completion-test format, so most employers pair the training with a short quiz to prove comprehension -- and remote proctoring is how HR teams confirm the right employee actually sat through it and passed, not just left a browser tab open.

Which employers does SB 1343 apply to? Those with 5 or more employees in California.

Why would an employer proctor the completion quiz remotely? To document that the specific named employee completed and passed the training, which strengthens compliance records if challenged.
