I swear, these workplace "training" programmes seem to be so incredibly out of touch sometimes. We also had one of these trainings and while the goal is of course very noble, it really just had the opposite effect. The examples were so silly that people just laughed at it and made fun of the whole thing, which made the workplace less welcoming instead of more.

It's all for compliance so your employer can wash their hands of you if you fuck up and make an inappropriate joke to the wrong person. "you received annual sexual harassment prevention training, this is on you."
