Preventing & dealing with sexual harassment at work

By law, all employers must take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment of their workers. The law is the Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023. The law came into effect on 26 October 2024. The law covers sexual harassment from:

  • other people at work 
  • third parties – for example customers and clients

This course will help navigate the legislation and provide practical hints and tips on embedding best practice within organisations delivered by an experienced, qualified specialist. This includes, but not limited to: 

  • ensuring that everyone acknowledges and understands that sexual harassment is not acceptable – for example as part of their induction 
  • training everyone in an organisation on recognising and understanding sexual harassment 
  • training managers on how to assess and manage risks of sexual harassment 
  • training someone to advise people who are considering making a sexual harassment complaint – you could train someone in HR, a manager or another worker (synergy with Safeguarding policies)
