New protections from sexual harassment in the workplace came into force on 26 October and impose additional obligations on employers.
Employers need to adopt proactive measures to create a safe and inclusive workplace while minimising legal risks. The duty marks a critical change for organisations as failure to comply could expose employers to legal risks, reputational damage, and potential financial penalties if employees experience harassment in the workplace.
We invite you to join our upcoming webinar, where partners Gareth Edwards and Joanne Oliver will guide you through the practical steps to meet this new obligation. Drawing on themes from our recent client survey, this session will provide actionable insights and strategies to help you strengthen your workplace culture and compliance efforts.
Gareth and Jo will cover the following topics:
• understanding the new duty and what it requires of employers;
• key themes and trends identified in our recent client survey;
• developing effective risk assessments and action plans; and
• implementing proactive measures, such as training and cultural initiatives.
