If we're talking about employees of a Covered Entity (CE), then the employer is responsible for training employees and ensuring an appropriate understanding of HIPAA. If we're talking about companies that aren't CE's but are contracted to CE's then that responsibility is (or should be) laid out in the Business Associate's Agreement -- the document HIPAA requires a CE to execute with contractees, that bind them to HIPAA-like performance even if they aren't CE's.
