サマリー
あらすじ・解説
The Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023 came into effect on 26 October 2024, introducing a legal duty for employers to proactively take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment.
In light of everything in the media recently around high profile figures, this is particularly topical.
- We discuss how good employers should be creating psychologically safe spaces to ensure team members feel comfortable speaking up when necessary.
- We talk about the need to train our teams in the difference between “banter” and harassment. In hospitality this is an even more potent issue than other industries.
- We chat about the need to prepare for situations connected with work including staff parties, where a risk assessment needs to be carried out. We discuss what this looks like and what precautions we can put in place.
Listen to ensure you are up to speed on your legal responsibilities.
