Overview

Preventing Discrimination and Harassment Training for the UK

Preventing sexual harassment and discrimination is central to creating a respectful and inclusive workplace culture. As part of a comprehensive strategy, regularly training employees on harassment and discrimination prevention helps organisation reinforce what is and isn’t acceptable behaviour, and comply with laws and regulations.

In the United Kingdom, the Equality Act 2010 legally protects people from sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace, as well as in wider society. Under the Act, it’s against the law to discriminate against anyone because of their age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation. The law also protects individuals from workplace discrimination, including dismissal, employment terms and conditions, pay and benefits, promotion and transfer opportunities, training, recruitment and redundancy.

Modern, interactive compliance training can be a strategic and practical tool for organisations to communicate their expectations for ethical behaviour and encourage employees to report and prevent incidents of harassment and discrimination they may experience or observe.
