Why This Training Matters


Legal Responsibility

Understanding and preventing sexual harassment is not just about doing the right thing it is a legal requirement. Both employers and employees must know the laws regarding what behaviour is permitted in the workplace and should try to provide a safe environment free of disrespect for anybody.

This training deals with major UK laws governing sexual harassment, including:

  • The Sex Discrimination Act, under which protection is provided against unfair treatment on the grounds of sex or marital status.
  • The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act, which treats wilful harassment as a criminal offence.
  • The Protection from Harassment Act, which punishes repeated unwanted acts or threats of violence by law
  • The Equality Act 2010, which outlines protected characteristics and stipulates parties to be treated fairly in the workplace
  • The Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023, which gives obligation to prevent workplace harassment to employers
  • The Health and Safety at Work Act, that requires that employers look out for the mental and physical well-being of its workers
  • The training enables you to know how to abide by any particular of these laws and build a working culture where all turn out to feel safe and respected.


Effects on the Workplace


Sexual harassment is not always as blatant: often subtle, unreported, or labelled as mere "joking around." And the effects are serious. Research shows that both a large number of women and men have experienced sexual harassment in the workplace.

The unchecked harassment can lead to:

  • Mental and emotional distress
  • Lost productivity
  • Staff turnover
  • Damage to the morale in the workplace
  • Monetary loss and blemishing of reputation due to litigation

    This course enables you and your organisation to:

  • Detect and deal with inappropriate conduct before it gets out of hand
  • Bring in an environment that is more inclusive and respectful
  • Protect the physical and mental well-being of employees, along with their rights
  • Give further impetus to the company culture, reputation, and success going forward
