Why does your business need a Sexual Harassment Policy?
Sexual Harassment legislation has changed with more changes to come as of 6 March 2023 so your business needs to be fully equipped to manage these changes and employer obligations.
Employers will have a positive duty to prevent and eliminate, so far as reasonably practicable, sexual harassment in connection with work. Therefore, a comprehensive and detailed policy will help you meet the employer obligations to provide a safe workplace that is free from sexual harassment.
Employers can be held vicariously liable for sexual harassment in connection with work, therefore, it is vitally important that employers implement a strong sexual harassment policy which CCIQ can provide for you.
