Prevention of Sexual Harassment at Work for Employees

Helping businesses meet the requirements of anti-sexual harassment legislation.

Employees work in environments where they are constantly engaging with colleagues, clients and other professionals across a range of settings in offices, at work events, social occasions or even online. These everyday interactions can, at times, blur professional boundaries and create circumstances where inappropriate behaviour may occur or go unreported.

In line with the changes to the Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010), which place greater responsibility on businesses and senior leaders to protect all employees from sexual harassment, this course is designed to ensure employees understand what constitutes sexual harassment and the forms it can take. It provides staff with the knowledge to recognise and report unacceptable behaviour, supporting businesses in meeting their obligation to proactively prevent sexual harassment incidents.
