About this course
Sexual harassment is defined as “any unwanted and repeated behaviour of a sexual nature”.
With roughly 40% of women and 18% of men having experienced unwanted sexual behaviour in the workplace, there is evidently more to be done to eradicate sexual harassment.
All employees should be able to go to work and feel appreciated, motivated, and safe. With that said, a workplace should do everything in its power to promote dignity and respect amongst colleagues.
This Sexual Harassment Awareness Training course should be used as a tool to raise awareness about a serious and often difficult issue in UK workplaces. This course shouldn’t just be used as a ‘reactive’ measure, it can be given to all staff even if there is no existing or past sexual harassment in the workplace.
This Sexual Harassment Training works in conjunction with our Bullying and Harassment in the Workplace for Management and Bullying and Harassment for Employees training courses.

This was very clear.
Much as this was a very clear course, I feel that I actually learned little as it was common sense and good manners.
Important topic and well delivered
This is an important topic to raise awareness of a previously taboo subject. I have been sexually harassed several times at work throughout the years and felt totally unprotected back then. I have been forced to leave jobs because of this in the past so this is a topic which I feel is vital.
Clear and to the point
Well presented, provided clear definitions of what is and isn't sexual harassment and the course tests understanding as it proceeds.
Informative but focused on victim not perpetrator

Useful overview for new employees
Some parts were repetitive/duplicated but the roleplays were a good idea to demonstrate potential scenarios
Why is this training important?
Compliance
It’s important that you comply with the law and know the ways in which it affects you and the way you work.
Employees are protected by a few different acts of parliament if they feel they’re being sexually harassed at work:
- The Sex Discrimination Act protects people from discrimination on the grounds of sex or marital status.
- The Criminal Justice and Public Order Act made intentional harassment a criminal offence.
- The Protection from Harassment Act made it a criminal offence to pursue conduct that leads to harassment, or fear that violence will be used. If convicted, someone can be sentenced to up to six months in prison, or receive an unlimited fine.
- The Equality Act ensures the workplace is a fair environment for all employees, whilst respecting the protected characteristics of each individual.
- The Worker Protection (Amendment of Equality Act 2010) Act 2023 places a legal obligation on employers to proactively prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
- The Health & Safety at Work Act ensures that employers are responsible for the health, safety and welfare of all employees while they’re at work.
Business benefits
A British survey revealed that over 50% of women and 20% of men in the UK have been sexually harassed at work.
Often being deemed as “harmless banter”, sexual harassment is far from it and can have seriously negative effects for individuals and organisations.
It can lead to victims suffering from a range of mental, emotional, and physical health problems, which in turn result in lower productivity, absenteeism, a higher employee turnover, and often legal costs.
This course has been designed to help identify, prevent, and remove sexual harassment from the workplace, helping to ensure that workplaces continue to make their employees feel appreciated, motivated, and safe, whilst also saving your organisation time, money, and its reputation.
