This new legislation mandates employers to take all reasonable steps to proactively prevent workplace sexual harassment.

Combatting sexual harassment is not only a legal necessity but a critical step toward creating a safer, more productive workplace; according to the TUC, over 50% of women and nearly 70% of LGBTQ+ workers have experienced harassment at work.

Steps include, adequate training, reporting systems, policies and risk assessments.

As well as being enforced by the Employment Tribunal, this new legislation is regulated by the Equality and Human Rights Commission who can investigate your organisation if non-compliance is suspected.

If you haven’t acted yet, don’t worry! Join us at our city centre premises on Thursday 28th November for a comprehensive, engaging, and compliant half day training session, essential for all leaders and people managers.

The training will cover-

  • Understanding your legal responsibilities as an employer and manager, including consequences of non-compliance.
  • Understanding the attitudes, norms, and psychology in an organisational context, which increase the risk of sexual harassment, and how to challenge them.
  • How to identify and mitigate the risks that power dynamics have on incidents of sexual harassment.
  • How to be an active bystander, using the 4 Ds of bystander intervention.
  • How to handle complaints and maintain adequate reporting procedures effectively and compliantly.

The training will be led by OneSource HR. OneSource HR are experts in harassment prevention, qualified to CIPD L7 and accredited in The Psychology of Victim Blaming and Trauma Informed Practise, ensuring you will have impactful outcomes from attending this session.
