Workplace harassment and bullying undermine wellbeing, productivity and morale, and pose significant legal and reputational risk. From October 2026, employers must take ALL reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment — not just reasonable ones — and face new liability for harassment of employees by third parties such as clients, customers and contractors. Investing in training now is one clear way to demonstrate a genuine commitment to prevention, accountability and employee care.
With extensive experience advising employers and defending employment claims, our sessions are grounded in legal expertise and tailored to your workplace. They’re designed to help you meet your enhanced duty to take all reasonable steps to prevent harassment — including third-party harassment — and to build a respectful, inclusive culture that will help you stand up to scrutiny if a claim is brought.
Sessions Cover
✅ Understanding what constitutes harassment and bullying, including harassment by clients, customers and other third parties.
