Advanced Employment Law – Sexual Harassment

3 July 2024 9:00am–4:00pm

This course is part of our expanding set of courses on discrimination under the Equality Act 2010.  It goes well with our course on sex discrimination law which covers flexible working issues and menopause discrimination.

This one-day course works through a film and discusses how to interview a member sensitively, how to prove that sexual harassment happened, time-limits, and the difficulties facing workers who bring tribunal cases in this area.

A very small amount of pre-course reading will be expected in order to make best use of the time.

The course will be delivered virtually over Microsoft Teams, 9am – 4pm on Wednesday 3rd July.

To apply, you must:

  • Be ERA accredited and active in supporting and representing members
  • Have previously completed Introduction to Employment Law or advanced employment law course

  • Be prepared to spend up to 1 hour at home before the training day on reading which we will send you in advance
  • Be able to participate fully in the session, which is highly interactive
