Around Morgantown, 48,860 private-sector jobs sit in Monongalia County (BLS Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, 2025 annual averages, retrieved 2026-07-27), and every one of those workplaces is one mishandled complaint away from joining that count.

West Virginia employment context
HR compliance for West Virginia employers
West Virginia does not mandate harassment prevention training for private employers. The West Virginia Human Rights Act (W. Va. Code chapter 5, article 11) prohibits employment discrimination at employers with 12 or more employees, and the West Virginia Human Rights Commission enforces it; federal Title VII adds coverage at 15 or more. The EEOC recorded 132 West Virginia charge receipts in fiscal year 2025 (EEOC Table E1b, FY 2025, retrieved 2026-07-27), with state-level filings running through the commission. Most West Virginia employers are small enough that no HR department exists, so the manager who takes the first complaint is the compliance program. Documented training on a fixed cycle is how courts recognize reasonable care. Catapult delivers that training to Morgantown teams live online, and every attendee leaves a completion record behind.
