This 90 minute event is designed to equip employers with essential insights into the latest UK legislation on preventing sexual harassment, along with practical strategies to navigate these changes legally, fairly, and sensitively.

With workplace harassment laws evolving, employers face increasing responsibilities in creating safer, more inclusive environments. Drawing on Cornerstone Resources’ experience supporting business owners and charity leaders through these changes—particularly following the October 2024 updates—this session will provide a clear, practical guide to what employers need to know and do.

What to Expect:
Legislation Recap – A breakdown of current legal requirements and key employer responsibilities.
Practical Application – What these changes look like in real-world workplace scenarios.
Proactive Strategies – How to foster a culture where employees feel safe speaking up.
Case Studies & Best Practice – Insights from real-life examples and expert recommendations.
Interactive Discussion – A chance to explore challenges and solutions with experienced HR professionals.

This event is ideal for employers, managers, and HR professionals (both in business and charity sectors) who want to stay informed, compliant, and proactive in addressing workplace sexual harassment
