About this course

Sexual harassment is defined as “any unwanted and repeated behaviour of a sexual nature”.

With roughly 40% of women and 18% of men having experienced unwanted sexual behaviour in the workplace, there is evidently more to be done to eradicate sexual harassment.

All employees should be able to go to work and feel appreciated, motivated, and safe. With that said, a workplace should do everything in its power to promote dignity and respect amongst colleagues.

This Sexual Harassment Awareness Training course should be used as a tool to raise awareness about a serious and often difficult issue in UK workplaces. This course shouldn’t just be used as a ‘reactive’ measure, it can be given to all staff even if there is no existing or past sexual harassment in the workplace.

This Sexual Harassment Training works in conjunction with our Bullying and Harassment in the Workplace for Management and Bullying and Harassment for Employees training courses.

Relevancy of Legislation

It would be helpful if Scottish legislation was also included, as several legislative headers are not relevant north of the border. Examples include the term blackmail, which is the common law crime of Extortion and the Voyeurism Offences Act 2019, which is covered by the Sexual Offences Scotland Act 2009 (these are just two examples from this training programme).

Put together well

I thought the content, pace and text were very good. Each point was put across well and I liked the examples given.

factual and concise

The course was very easy to follow and the delivery was excellent. Explaining different aspects and employer and employee responsibilities and course of actions available and recommended.

EXELLENT

VERY USEFULL INFORMATION

Informative course

I enjoyed the course. It was short, very informative and told me all I need to know about sexual harassment and what constitutes this type of behavior. I liked listening to the facilitators and thought it was good that they used a woman of colour and a man. The questions were straightforward and easy to understand. The training was concise and to the point and there was no gray areas.

Why is this training important?

Compliance

It’s important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.

Employees are protected by a few different acts of parliament if they feel they’re being sexually harassed at work:

Business benefits

A British survey revealed that over 50% of women and 20% of men in the UK have been sexually harassed at work.

Often being deemed as “harmless banter”, sexual harassment is far from it and can have seriously negative effects for individuals and organisations.

It can lead to victims suffering from a range of mental, emotional, and physical health problems, which in turn result in lower productivity, absenteeism, a higher employee turnover, and often legal costs.

This course has been designed to help identify, prevent, and remove sexual harassment from the workplace, helping to ensure that workplaces continue to make their employees feel appreciated, motivated, and safe, whilst also saving your organisation time, money, and its reputation.
