Date: Wednesday 30 September 2026
Time: 10am
Format: Online webinar via Zoom
Registration link: Webinar Registration - Zoom
Join our Health & Social Care team for this upcoming webinar on the new legal obligations relating to third-party harassment. The Employment Rights Act represents the most significant overhaul of employment law in over 50 years and will substantially rebalance the employment relationship, with important implications for compliance with CQC requirements.
The webinar will focus on the new third-party harassment liability provisions coming into force in October 2026 and will cover:
What the new duty to prevent third-party harassment means in practice;
Which protected characteristics are covered by the new duty;
How organisations can defend a third-party harassment claim;
The risks for organisations delivering adult social care services; and
How to manage conflicts between employment and regulatory obligations where staff are harassed by someone they support.
The session is aimed at HR professionals, directors, business owners, executives, managers, team leaders and anyone responsible for HR and people management within organisations delivering adult social care services.
