SUMMARY:"All Reasonable Steps" to Prevent Sexual Harassment in Practice
DESCRIPTION:The Employment Rights Act places increasing emphasis on employers’ duty to prevent sexual harassment and demonstrate that they have taken “all reasonable steps” to protect workers. For engineering and manufacturing businesses\, this responsibility extends beyond the factory floor to include contractors\, apprentices\, agency workers\, field-based employees\, customer sites\, supplier interactions\, exhibitions\, social events and other workplace-related activities. \nThis is a peer-to-peer roundtable will bringing together manufacturers from the Engineering & Manufacturing Network to discuss how businesses are interpreting and responding to the “all reasonable steps” requirement in practice. \nA useful session for senior leaders\, HR professionals and operational managers and an opportunity to explore the practical implications of the duty across both on-site and off-site working environments\, enabling benchmarking of your approach and sharing your good practice whilst identifying practical actions to strengthen your organisation’s position and reduce risks. \nThrough facilitated peer discussion\, attendees will examine real-world approaches to: \n\nPreventing harassment before issues arise\nSupporting workers across varied workplaces and customer sites\nManaging third-party and contractor-related risks\nDemonstrating reasonable and proportionate action\nReducing exposure to employment tribunal claims\nBuilding a respectful and inclusive workplace culture\n\nParticipants will leave with practical insights\, benchmarking opportunities and actionable ideas that can be applied within organisations of all sizes and chaired by Lauren Bathan from Jackson Hoggs outsourced HR Services.
