Maine employment context
HR compliance for Maine employers
Maine has required workplace harassment training for decades. An employer with 15 or more employees must train every new employee on sexual harassment within 1 year of hire under 26 M.R.S. section 807, and anyone in a supervisory or managerial role needs additional training on their specific responsibilities within 1 year of taking the role. The statute also requires an individual written notice to every employee each year, a training program built on the Maine Department of Labor’s compliance checklist, and training records kept for at least 3 years. The Maine Human Rights Commission handles state discrimination filings; the EEOC recorded 58 Maine charge receipts in fiscal year 2025 (EEOC Table E1b, FY 2025, retrieved 2026-07-27). For Bangor employers, Catapult’s instructor-led online sessions satisfy the mandate and document completion.

Good to know
Bangor HR training questions
When must new Maine employees get sexual harassment training?
Within 1 year of starting work, at employers with 15 or more employees. The training must cover what harassment is, the internal complaint process and anti-retaliation protections under 26 M.R.S. section 807. Bangor employers must keep training records at least 3 years and produce them if the Department of Labor asks.
Distance is not a barrier. All open-enrollment courses run live online, and Bangor teams attend alongside peers nationwide. Session times are listed in Eastern Time, which matches Bangor’s clock exactly. Private on-site delivery is the alternative when you want a room of your own people.
Everything an HR team buys training for: compliance and harassment prevention, manager development, professional skills, technology and certification prep. Course pages show upcoming dates, and any session can be delivered privately for a Bangor group, online or at your site.
Nearly all. HRCI and SHRM approval is listed on each course page, and completion certificates document your hours. If your team holds PHR, SPHR, SHRM-CP or SHRM-SCP credentials, Catapult sessions slot directly into their recertification plans.
Yes, and it is often the better fit for cohorts of 10 or more. Catapult runs private sessions for Bangor employers live online or on-site, scheduled around your shifts, with the same HRCI and SHRM credit and completion records.
