Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

Do you know the law on sexual harassment is changing next month?

 Are you ready for the changes?

 From October employers should conduct a risk assessment for sexual harassment in their workplace.  If they don’t, employees can be awarded an additional 25% compensation if they bring a claim.

There are lots of reasons why business should tackle sexual harassment in the workplace.  This is just one of them.  With some awards upwards of £100,000, isn’t it worth protecting your business by doing a simple risk assessment?

 I am all about protecting your business and can guide you through this simple process.
