This means that employers are required by law to take ‘reasonable steps’ to prevent sexual harassment of their workers.

As a result of the Act, it is now mandatory for all staff to undertake annual training on this topic. This is one of several preventative measures expected of employers.

But what does ‘reasonable steps’ actually mean?

Grey Lemon is on hand to demystify the ‘grey areas’ in this legislation and help make sure you don’t fall short of meeting the new requirements. We can support you in deciding how best to proceed; how to implement and embed change; and to ensure your approach is the right one for your organisation.

What can Grey Lemon do for me?

TRAINING

Grey Lemon can provide you with mandatory training that is live, engaging and beneficial:
‍‍

• ‍In-person company training‍
  • Dedicated training delivered on-site to your senior leadership team and employees, tailored specifically to your organisational needs.‍
• Online company training‍
  • Live online training can also be provided for your company. This allows for tailored guidance but with the convenience of an online session to accommodate remote/hybrid workers.‍
• Online multi-company training‍
  • Smaller organisations may prefer to join one of our shared live online training sessions. This is also the perfect solution for any employees unable to make a dedicated in-house/online session. This type of training offers the chance for a cross-section of companies to interact live with a leading expert.

SUPPORTING FRAMEWORK

We can also offer you expert guidance and a supporting framework to demonstrate your compliancy:
‍

• ‍Action & Accountability‍
  • Grey Lemon can walk you through a Prevention of Sexual Harassment Risk Assessment Form as a tool to analyse your company’s individual needs. We will then advise on the reasonable steps to take to minimise the risks to both your employees and your organisation moving forward.‍
• Workplace Policies‍
  • A Sexual Harassment Policy can be provided, along with other relevant policies, to ensure your organisation adheres to the new legislation. Additional policies include (but are not limited to): Equality, Diversity & Inclusion; Anti Bullying & Harassment; and Work-Related Social Events.
