Worker Protection Act Training
The preventative duty will be expanded later this year to include taking all reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment of employees. Training employees on what sexual harassment is, how to recognise it and what to do to stop it is a reasonable step that all employers can take as part of complying with this duty. Blake Morgan has partnered with the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, the UK’s leading personal safety charity, to create a series of on-demand, practical and legally-grounded e-learning sessions on sexual harassment. This training is designed to be one of the reasonable steps an employer can take to prevent sexual harassment.
The easily available, on demand e-learning sessions are designed for employers of all sizes. The sessions:
- Explain what sexual harassment is.
- Break down the preventative duty and what taking “reasonable steps” may look like in practice.
- Help organisations identify potential risk factors .
- Train managers, employees, and bystanders to recognise, respond to, and prevent harassment.
The online, on-demand service can be hosted on an employer’s own Learning Management System (LMS), or the Suzy Lamplugh Trust’s LMS.
Employees can use the sessions on demand, as frequently as they like. Administration of sales and delivery is managed by the Suzy Lamplugh Trust. Find out more about the e-learning sessions here.
Bespoke sexual harassment policies, advice and in-person training can also be arranged.
