In this podcast we dive deep into the landmark legislation transforming the landscape of worker rights in the UK—the New Worker Protection Act.
This October, the Worker Protection Act 2023 will come into force in the UK. An amendment of the 2010 Equality Act, the Worker Protection Act 2023 aims to better protect employees from sexual harassment by prioritising prevention.
Employers in the UK will now have a legal duty to work preventatively — and not retrospectively — to address sexual harassment in the workplace. The Act ensures that employers “must take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment of employees in the course of their employment.” This extends to when employees are working outside of their office, and when they are attending social events that are considered an extension of work.
Our expert guests, Stephens Scown Solicitors unpack the new legislation and offer practical and tangible tips for you to implement this into your organisation to be Worker Protection Act ready
