A recent study of UK workplaces found that over 50% of women have been sexually harassed at some point in their careers. Numbers like these paint an unpleasant picture of workplaces across the country. Sexual harassment at work can lead to several negative consequences, including low productivity, loss of interest in work, and even depression and anxiety. Understanding your role as an employer and providing sexual harassment training is essential to preventing sexual harassment at work and building a healthier working environment.
This course provides important information about preventing sexual harassment at work, with a focus on the role of the employee. It begins with a few key definitions, before covering the behaviours exhibited by both those who victimise others and those who are victimised. It then provides specific strategies for prevention, before examining the roles of the employer and the employee in active prevention.
