Fantastic working with The Suzy Lamplugh Trust and Baroness Carmen Smith on amendments to the Employment Rights Bill- tackling the high rates of sexual harrasement in the workplace is early intervention that would have a huge impact on violence against women and girls.

Hannah was told to wear a revealing outfit.
She was groped by customers.
Management said: “It sells.”
The harassment wasn’t the problem—it was the plan.

What would real protection look like?
HSE classifying sexual harassment as a workplace hazard
Mandatory employer action plans
Consequences for employers who fail to protect workers
A culture where harassment is NOT tolerated
We can make this happen.
