Join us for our Duty to Prevent Sexual Harassment in the Workplace webinar on Thursday 3rd October between 10am - 11am.

The new mandatory duty to take “reasonable steps” to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace will be introduced on the 26th October. The preventative duty will require all employers to actively prevent sexual harassment, including by third parties, in the workplace.

Rachel Blythe and Harmajinder Hayre will take you through your legal obligations, the EHCR guidance and consequences of non-compliance. We will also share our best practice thoughts around risk assessments, training, complaint channels and policy/contractual changes that you will need to consider.

Join our expert Employment lawyers who will take you through:

An overview of the current legislation, including the definition of sexual harassment

  • What is changing and why
  • The implications for employers
  • What can be done to mitigate the risks

Please note that this event is designed to be informative, not advisory and represents our understanding of English law and practice as at the date indicated. We would always recommend that you should seek specific guidance on any particular legal issue.
