Mosaic & Nockolds HR Event

This event is tailored for HR professionals, business owners, and recruiting managers. It’s divided into two key sections: Nockolds will walk you through the updated legal duty to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace and what this means for your business. Meanwhile, Mosaic will share valuable insights on how to hire the right way!

Nockolds:

On 26 October 2024, the new positive duty on all employers to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace comes into force, under The Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023.

If organisations fail to comply with the new law, and have done nothing to prevent harassment, the Tribunal can increase the compensation awarded to a successful claimant by up to 25%.

Rachel Davis from Nockolds will discuss ‘harassment’ in the eyes of the law, consider ‘workplace behaviour’ and when an employer can be vicariously liable, examine the employer’s ‘all reasonable steps’ defence and how it can be used and provide practical tips on what organisations should do to demonstrate compliance with the new legal duty. Rachel’s session will include an opportunity for questions and answers.
