Tackling sexual harassment in the workforce

In February, Central Law Training is launching an interactive e-learning course that will help law firms to tackle sexual harassment in the workplace

The 45-minute course, ‘Sexual harassment: building better legal workplaces’, raises awareness, encourages reflection and empowers individuals to call out inappropriate behaviours.

Mark Solon, chairman of Wilmington Legal, said: ‘There is a big problem with sexual harassment in the law. This short course will allow lawyers to notice their behaviour and change if appropriate. They can reflect on their own behaviour in the privacy of their computers and understand the role they can personally play in stamping out sexual harassment.’

Sexual Harassment: Building Better Legal Workplaces will be available from Central Law Training in early February. CLT members will have free access, while non-members can purchase single or multi-user licences from www.clt.co.uk.
