Important change in Employment law

From 26 October 2024, employers have a new legal obligation to “take reasonable steps” to proactively prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.

Employers facing a sexual harassment claim will need to demonstrate the targeted measures they have implemented to comply with this new positive duty. Failure to comply may open employers up to both financial and reputational risks. Key measures include training staff and policy review/implementation.

Collyer Bristow's bespoke training is delivered by our experienced Employment lawyers in an engaging and informative way designed to ensure all employees in your organisation have a clear understanding of the new law (and the implications of it) to help you manage and prevent sexual harassment occurring in the workplace. We can then also review and/or draft all necessary policies and contracts, including those for clients and customers.

The digitalisation of our everyday lives

All of us have at least part of our lives online and in digital assets such as emails, social media profiles, cryptocurrency and online bank accounts, to name just a few. The law recognises that digital assets can be owned. However, there is no consistency between assets and you may find that some of your most valuable assets are mere licences to use a third-party provider’s service. This has significant consequences when attempting to access, manage and transfer digital assets after death.
