Do you know the law on sexual harassment is changing next month?

 Are you ready for the changes?

 From October employers should conduct a risk assessment for sexual harassment in their workplace.  If they don’t, employees can be awarded an additional 25% compensation if they bring a claim.

There are lots of reasons why business should tackle sexual harassment in the workplace.  This is just one of them.  With some awards upwards of £100,000, isn’t it worth protecting your business by doing a simple risk assessment?

 I am all about protecting your business and can guide you through this simple process.
