## Description

Conduct that amounts to harassment is not necessarily limited to verbal acts, but it covers a range of behaviour. The Equality Act 2010 states that harassment occurs when an individual engages in unwanted conduct that relates to a protected characteristic or unwanted conduct of a sexual nature. Our Harassment in the Workplace Training Course will help develop your understanding of harassment, what to do if you experience or witness it and how to prevent and manage it.

## Learning Objectives

- Recognise behaviours that are high-risk and constitute harassment
- Comply with your policies to avoid being involved in harassment
- Be more self-aware and recognise how your actions may be interpreted by others
- Act appropriately to maintain a professional and respectful culture
- Take appropriate action to reduce the risks of and prevent harassment
- Effectively respond to and report any cases of harassment
