Join us for our practical employment law training webinar on how to comply with the upcoming changes to the employers' duty to prevent sexual harassment and introduction of liability for third-party harassment.
Since October 2024 employers have been under a duty to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment of employees in the course of their employment. From October 2026 this will be strengthened to a duty to take “all reasonable steps”, meaning more will be expected of them. Employers will also be liable for third-party harassment (harassment of all kinds, not just sexual harassment), unless they can show they took all reasonable steps to prevent it.
These are significant changes that will have implications for employers of all shapes and sizes, irrespective of sector.
We are delighted to invite you to join us for the next webinar in our E3 training series, delivered by Jamie Meechan and Elspeth Drysdale from our employment team. The webinar will focus on the duty to prevent harassment, the changes coming into force in October, and practical steps employers can take to comply.
The training is aimed at HR teams and in-house lawyers dealing with employment law matters.
Attendees will also be provided with a recording of the session and a template sexual harassment policy and template anti-harassment and bullying policy.
