About this event
In this event where we'll explore research around sexual harassment and how the risks and experiences can differ across industries
Join us for this event where we'll explore research around sexual harassment and how the risks and experiences can differ across industries and personal demographics, and to hear an employer's case study about preventing sexual harassment and supporting their employees.
Increased compliance obligations for employers around sexual harassment mean that employers will need to take ALL reasonable steps to prevent it.
At this event, we’ll explore research around sexual harassment and discuss how employers can prevent it.
