The Worker Protection Act 2023 will come into force on 25 October of this year, imposing a new positive duty on UK employers to take 'reasonable steps' to prevent sexual harassment of employees in the course of their employment. In the first instalment of this podcast, we discussed the impact of the Act within workplaces within the UK, and shared our insights based on experience with the adoption of similar legislation in Australia. In the second, we shared our experience from working with employers in Asia and EMEA about similar applicable laws and duties to prevent sexual harassment. In this, the final episode in the mini-series, our Employment Lawyers in South Africa and the United States draw a comparison with their jurisdictions.
Speakers: Jacqui Reed, Senior Associate, South Africa and Tyler Hendry, Senior Associate, United States.
