Sexual harassment statistics highlight an urgent need for proactive measures against workplace sexual harassment. A 2019 BBC survey showed that 40% of women and 18% of men reported experiencing unwanted sexual behaviours at work. Yet, despite this alarming prevalence, only 18% of employees were certain their organisation provided training on the issue. This gap is more than a statistic; it’s a call to action.. As of October 26th, new UK legislation mandate that employers must take “reasonable steps” to prevent sexual harassment, with training as a key component. Is your business prepared to protect your people and meet these standards? 🛠️ Join our upcoming webinar to learn practical steps to foster a safe workplace and understand your obligations under the new legislation.  Protecting your team isn’t just a legal duty—it’s a fundamental responsibility.   #SexualHarrassment #Traininganddevelopment #Research #Leadership #CustomerService #ServiceLeadership

Compliance with the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) Act 2013 is essential for fostering safe and respectful workplaces. Here are 5 key steps to ensure compliance with POSH: 1. Develop a comprehensive sexual harassment policy that outlines reporting procedures and emphasizes zero tolerance. 2. Establish an Internal Committee that is trained, diverse, and equipped to handle complaints impartially and confidentially. 3. Conduct regular awareness programs to educate employees about their rights and responsibilities under the POSH Act. 4. Display posters and notices in prominent areas of the workplace to reinforce the organization's commitment to preventing sexual harassment. 5. Fulfill the legal requirement of filing an annual report on sexual harassment cases with the appropriate authority. Ensure accuracy and transparency in reporting incidents and actions taken. Compliance with the POSH Act 2013 not only ensures legal adherence but also contributes to creating a culture of dignity, respect, and safety for all employees. #POSHAct #Dignity #Workplacesafety #POSHCompliance #Policydevelopment #Awareness #POSHTraining
