New Training Course: Preventing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

At Ethical Workforce Solutions, we’re dedicated to building safer and more respectful workplaces. In response to the upcoming Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023, taking effect on 26 October 2024, we’ve developed a comprehensive new course: Preventing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace.

This proactive training ensures organisations understand their legal responsibilities while creating a culture that discourages harassment and supports employee well-being.

Why This Training Matters

Sexual harassment remains a pervasive issue in the workplace, negatively impacting employee morale, productivity, and trust. Under the Worker Protection Act, employers must take ‘reasonable steps’ to prevent harassment or risk significant legal and reputational consequences.

By implementing effective policies and fostering awareness, organisations can not only comply with legislation but also build a more inclusive and supportive workplace culture.
