Help protect your organisation by ensuring your employees understand how to recognise, prevent and report harassment in the workplace.

In October 2024, employers became subject to a legal duty to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace. From October 2026, that duty is expected to become even stricter, requiring employers to take all reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment, alongside the introduction of employer liability for third-party harassment.

Employment Tribunals don't just consider whether harassment occurred, they can also examine what your organisation did to try to prevent it. With these legal changes on the horizon, employers should be reviewing their anti-harassment measures now. The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) identifies regular, effective staff training as one of the key steps employers should take to help demonstrate compliance with their legal obligations and reduce the risk of liability.

What this training covers

• What harassment, sexual harassment and third-party harassment are.
• Examples of unacceptable workplace behaviour.
• How employees should report harassment.
• What to do if they experience or witness harassment.
• The responsibilities of employees.
• How everyone can help create a respectful and inclusive workplace.

By providing this training, employers can evidence that employees have received anti-harassment training and understand the standards of behaviour expected in the workplace.

Note: This training is designed for employees. Separate anti-harassment training tailored specifically for managers will be available separately.

Attendance Requirements

• One ticket must be purchased for each employee attending.
• Individual attendance using a personal device is preferred wherever possible, as this allows attendance and participation to be verified.
• Where organisations have purchased multiple tickets, employees may attend together using a shared screen or meeting room, provided all attendees are clearly visible throughout the training and the number of attendees does not exceed the number of tickets purchased.
• Cameras should remain switched on unless reasonable adjustments have been agreed in advance.
• Attendance registers may be requested for larger group bookings.
• Sharing a single ticket between multiple attendees is not permitted.
• Employers are encouraged to retain attendance records as part of their compliance records.
