One in four people who experience sexual harassment face it in the workplace. Today, we stand together to end gender-based violence at work and urge all MPs to support the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 (Amendment) Bill during its second reading. @LSRPlaid

We were proud to host a parliamentary event today alongside @LSRPlaid to mark the second reading of our Bill which would introduce a duty on employers to prevent all forms of gender-based violence in the workplace.

Alongside @LSRPlaid & @rightsofwomen, we submitted amendments to the Employment Rights Bill which would require employers to take steps to prevent violence and harassment in the workplace. We urge the government to support these amendments to protect everyone's #RightToBeSafe.

There is quite a lot of inaccurate reporting on the Premier League player accused of sexual abuse. To clarify - he is under investigation for sexual offences relating to four women. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Dr Anna Bull she/her@anna_bull_·
In the UK, there is now a specific legal duty requiring employers to prevent sexual harassment. If you're working in higher education, ask your HR department what steps they are taking to implement the preventative duty. Some key ideas are outlined in this article.
Times Higher Education@timeshighered

The UK’s new prevention duty could move the dial on sexual harassment in #HE: the rules should quash the idea that a formal investigation is the only way universities can take action on disclosures or rumours of abuse by staff, says @anna_bull_ of the @1752Group bit.ly/3UIZxoh

@SFraserButlin @emplawyers @Selwyn1882 This really should include all the Law Centres and legal advice charities doing frontline work supporting for those who can't access legal advice or are representing themselves in employment disputes.

Sexual misconduct within the NHS is unacceptable, and must not be tolerated. I strongly encourage every leader in the NHS to adopt these measures. Together we can make a difference.
NHS England@NHSEngland

NHS staff will be able to anonymously report sexual misconduct at work, as part of major plans to improve safety for staff across the health service. This new framework outlines how NHS staff should recognise, report and act on sexual misconduct. ➡️ england.nhs.uk/2024/10/anonym…

The government has officially stepped away from their predecessor’s position that the right to strike isn’t protected by the ILO, the UN’s workers’ rights watchdog. A clear signal the 🇬🇧 is firmly back on the right side of global efforts to protect the right to strike. 👏👏

When you look at the state of crumbling public services ( made up of 65% women) and the NHS (made up 74% women!) you can definitely see how making it harder for working mums is the solution we’ve all been crying out for. It’s hard to see how this lot got booted out, isn’t it?

Maternity pay isn’t a ‘tax’ or ‘regulation’ It’s a hard fought workers’ right which boosts economies, fertility rates and keeps women in the workforce Wanting working mums to have more children, but more broke, for ‘personal responsibility’? That’s just garbled nonsense.
Kemi Badenoch@KemiBadenoch

Great day at conference and enjoyed some robust media conversations. I don’t shy from difficult topics, but I won’t be misrepresented. Of course culture matters but we need to talk about integration. Of course maternity pay isn’t excessive…no mother of 3 kids thinks that. But we must talk about the burden of excessive business regulation otherwise we might as well be the Labour Party. My campaign is different from others because tell hard truths. It is how we will renew our party, our thinking and our politics.
