Join us and our Members, Practical HR, to understand the responsibilities businesses now have to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
On 26th October 2024, a new duty came into effect whereby every employer has a legal duty to proactively prevent sexual harassment.
If you fail to meet the new duty, you could face claims with uncapped compensation limits, plus a further uplift of up to 25%!
It’s
NOT enough just to have a policy (although that is an essential). Employers will need to do much more to demonstrate they have taken reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment.
This webinar will give an overview of the new duty, how you can protect your business, and discuss what reasonable steps employers need to take to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
Attend this webinar to find out what you need to do, and how Essex Chambers can support you, including discounted access for Members to helpful resources.
Date: Wednesday 4th December - 10.00am - 11.00am
Platform: Zoom
Cost: FREE for Members. Non-Members £25.00
