Your new duty to prevent sexual harassment: What does it mean for your business?

What’s in the webinar

This is a 45-minute session with Flora Neville, associate speaker, and Citation’s Business Development Manager, Leon Weate. In the webinar, they’ll cover what changes on 30 October, when the duty to prevent sexual harassment moves from “reasonable steps” to “all reasonable steps”, and the new liability for harassment by third parties. There’ll be 15 minutes at the end for a live Q&A, so bring your questions.

Why you should join

From 30 October, you could be held liable if someone is harassed by third parties including customers, clients, suppliers and contractors, in the course of their employment and if you haven’t taken all reasonable steps to prevent it.
