Back in 2019 the government published a consultation on sexual harassment in the workplace, largely in response to the #metoo movement and widespread criticism of the current level of protection for employees and workers in the workplace. Now, some 2 years later the government has finally published its response to this consultation.
This podcast looks at what changes may be made to legislation in the coming months and years - specifically the positive duty that will be placed on employers to take steps to prevent harassment.
We still await the outcome of another consultation about the use of confidentiality clauses in settlement agreement in relation to sexual harassment.
