TUC General Secretary Frances O’Grady commented on government plans announced today (Friday) to survey victims of sexual harassment in the workplace to inform policy 

“This is an important survey that will help us all understand the scale of sexual harassment in our workplaces.

“The next step must be to change the law so that responsibility for preventing harassment at work sits with employers, not victims.

“The government must work not only with business, but with unions too. We are at the frontline of providing support to victims of sexual harassment. And we negotiate better workplace policies and training to stop it in the first place.”
