REGISTER HERE

This session explores two of the most significant developments in UK employment law in 2026: the enhanced statutory duty on employers to take ALL reasonable steps to prevent harassment – and – the liability for harassment by third parties.

Adele Martins, Head of Employment, will provide practical guidance on what the enhanced duty requires and the steps employers should be taking now — including risk assessments, workplace signage, training, and manager empowerment.  She’ll also explain how employers can reduce legal risk and minimise liability, both for their own workers and for harassment by third parties.

What we’ll cover

• What the duty to “take all reasonable steps” means in practice
• Liability for third party harassment
• How to conduct a risk assessment effectively
• Practical steps for compliance
• Risk areas and how to minimise them
• Q&A
