Sexual harassment in the workplace is a serious problem and, when not managed effectively, there are severe consequences for the organisation. These include reduced productivity, low team morale, an increase in staff turnover and a negative impact on the organisational reputation. Its complexity continues to pose a challenge to those seeking to prevent and manage negative behaviours.
Organisations who take proactive measures in managing sexual harassment in the workplace set up systems where employees can report concerns without the fear of potential reprisals or adverse consequences. The desired outcome being employees who feel reassured that concerns are taken seriously and dealt with effectively, ensuring the values and ethos of the ‘right to respect and dignity in the workplace’ are maintained.
This course aims to reduce the risk of sexual harassment claims and help organisations give a clear message about the value of respect and dignity, reiterating that sexual harassment will not be tolerated.
This training can be adapted to suit anyone in the organisation – from board members and senior management teams, to managers and those with no management responsibility.
The Manager’s version of this course covers the manager’s role in building a culture where sexual harassment behaviours at work are not accepted. The main difference between this and the standard Tackling Sexual Harassment at Work course is the context in which the trainer delivers the course.
By the end of the course, participants will:
This interactive course will be adaptable to meet the needs of the participants and will be participative.
