Effective assessment goes beyond checking a completion box. Evolve courses include:
- Knowledge checks throughout each module to reinforce learning in real-time
- Scenario-based questions that require employees to apply concepts, not just memorize facts
- Final assessments that employees must pass to receive certification (typically 80% threshold)
- Detailed reporting that shows not just who completed training, but where learners struggled
Additionally, we recommend periodic pulse surveys and manager check-ins to assess how well employees can apply training concepts in their actual work environment.
Yes—compliance training is not optional for most employees. Whether you need specific compliance training depends on three factors: federal regulations that apply to your role, state laws where you work, and your employer’s industry.
Federally Mandated Compliance Training:
Many compliance training requirements come from federal agencies and apply to all U.S. employers:
- OSHA Safety Training: Required for all employees exposed to workplace hazards. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration mandates specific training for topics like hazard communication, bloodborne pathogens, personal protective equipment, and emergency procedures. Frequency: Annual or when job duties change.
- HIPAA Training for Healthcare Workers: Required for all employees at hospitals, medical practices, health insurance companies, and business associates who handle protected health information (PHI). Frequency: At hire and annually thereafter.
- Anti-Harassment Training: While not federally mandated nationwide, the EEOC strongly recommends harassment prevention training as a best practice for all employers. Frequency: Every 1-2 years.
State-Mandated Compliance Training:
Many states have additional requirements beyond federal law:
- California: Requires harassment prevention training for all employers with 5+ employees
- New York: Requires annual harassment training for all employees
- Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Maine: Each have specific harassment training mandates
- State-specific OSHA plans: Some states have additional safety training requirements
Industry-Specific Compliance Training:
Certain industries face additional regulatory requirements:
- Healthcare: HIPAA, OSHA bloodborne pathogens, infection control, patient rights
- Construction: OSHA construction standards, fall protection, scaffolding safety
- Manufacturing: Machine guarding, lockout/tagout, hazardous materials
- Financial Services: Anti-money laundering, data security, privacy regulations
- Education: FERPA training for student record privacy
Legal Consequences of Skipping Required Training:
Failing to complete mandatory compliance training creates serious risks:
- Your employer faces OSHA penalties up to $156,259 per willful violation
- HIPAA violations can cost your organization $100 to $50,000+ per incident
- You personally may face disciplinary action or termination
- In serious cases, you could be held personally liable for violations
- Your employer’s defense against lawsuits may be compromised without proof of training
Why Even “Optional” Training Matters:
Some compliance training isn’t legally required but is critical for workplace safety and your career protection. Evolve recommends completing all assigned training because:
- It protects you from unknowingly violating policies
- It documents your good-faith effort to follow rules
- It gives you knowledge to recognize and report problems
- It demonstrates professionalism and accountability
Evolve’s compliance training platform clearly labels which courses are legally required vs. recommended for your role, state, and industry. Our compliance specialists can also help your organization conduct a training needs assessment to identify exactly which compliance training programs your workforce needs.
Requirements vary significantly by industry, location, and workforce size. Here are the most common mandates:
- Harassment prevention: Required in CA, CT, DE, IL, ME, NY, and others—typically every 1-2 years
- OSHA safety: Required for all employers, with specific trainings for construction, healthcare, manufacturing, and general industry
- HIPAA: Required for all healthcare organizations and their business associates who handle protected health information
- Bloodborne pathogens: Required for employees with occupational exposure to blood or bodily fluids
- FERPA: Required for educational institutions handling student records
Evolve’s compliance specialists can help you identify exactly which trainings your organization needs based on your industry, headcount, and operating locations. We stay current on changing regulations so you don’t have to.

It depends on the type of training and your location. OSHA safety training is typically required annually or when job responsibilities change.
