Training compliance

Some industries (or regions) require employees to be mandatorily trained in specific areas.

For example, in California, any company with five or more employees would have to provide two hours of classroom/interactive anti-harassment training to every employee in a supervisory role, and at least one hour to all non-supervisory employees. Professions like nursing, social care, manufacturing equipment handling, etc. come with their own set of training laws.
