Overview
Recent changes to employment law have introduced new duties on employers to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
Since October 2024, employers have been under a statutory duty to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment. Further reforms expected in 2026 will strengthen this duty and extend employer responsibilities, including preventing harassment by third parties such as customers, clients and contractors.
This practical employment law training session will explain the current legal framework and explore how employers can prepare for the upcoming changes.

- How to carry out risk assessments and implement preventative measures
This session will provide practical guidance for employers looking to ensure compliance and create safer workplace environments.
