Audit Objective

Determine whether County of Yates (County) employees and elected officials completed annual sexual harassment prevention training (SHP Training).

Key Findings

SHP Training was provided to employees and elected officials. However, of the 45 total individuals we tested (23 selected employees and all 22 elected officials), we found three elected officials, including the Sheriff and two Coroners, did not complete the annual SHP Training.

Key Recommendation

County officials should continue to monitor the completion of annual SHP Training by all employees and should encourage elected officials to complete the training.

County officials generally agreed with our recommendation and have indicated they planned to initiate corrective action.
