New sexual harassment laws: essential updates for employers and employees
03 Sep 2024
Can new sexual harassment laws reshape your workplace culture? Join Andrew Whiteaker and Helen Goss to break down the critical changes to the new sexual harassment laws in the UK, taking effect on October 26th. Discover how the 'Me Too' movement has led to a mandatory duty for employers to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment in the work place. They'll explore why traditional approaches are no longer sufficient and how tailored strategies can foster a safer, more respectful work environment. Finally, they discuss the importance of addressing all harassment incidents, no matter how minor they may seem. Encouraging a culture where employees and witnesses feel safe to report concerns is crucial. As they wrap up the episode with the benefits of employees taking annual leave, rest is not just beneficial for health and productivity, but also essential for maintaining a positive workplace culture.Episode Links Visit our website Contact us Our Employment services Our HR training
