Loss Prevention Trainings

There are educational trainings specifically geared for law enforcement and detention operations designed to improve the knowledge, skills, and abilities employees need to possess to perform specific jobs, reduce liability, and obtain professional development. 

Our Loss Prevention Department also offers courses and onsite inspections that teach county members the risks and causes of incidents in their facilities and that help expand their understanding of supervision, management, and other skills. For inquires about Loss Prevention training opportunities, please contact us by email.

Certificates will be provided.  

Target Audience: Any county employee  

Description: If you attend, you’ll learn:

  • What counts as harassment (spoiler: more than you think)
  • What doesn’t count (but will still annoy your coworkers and make HR sigh heavily)
  • Understanding your coworker’s eye roll does not count as consent
  • How to avoid creating a hostile work environment
  • Why “I was just joking” won’t hold up in court, ever
  • Why pretending nothing happened isn’t a best practice or a management strategy
  • How to identify, prevent, and report inappropriate behavior
  • The risks of workplace romantic, consensual relationships (when love blossoms and then withers and dies) and sexual harassment.
  • That virtual or off-the-clock harassment still counts. If you wouldn’t say it in person at work, don’t say it on Zoom, text, email, or anywhere Wi-Fi exists.
  • What constitutes retaliation and how to avoid it
  • Key principles for fostering respect and reducing county liability
  • Responsibilities of employees, supervisors, and managers in stopping harassment
  • The role of “bystander” intervention
