Tackling Workplace Harassment - a FREE Toolkit

In October 2024 the Worker Protection Act 2023 introduced a legal duty for employers to take all reasonable steps to prevent harassment in the workplace. Now, the Employment Rights Bill is set to extend that duty further to include harassment from third parties like customers, clients and contractors.

 

If your employees interact with the public in any way, this change directly affects you.

 

To help, our Partner Citation has created a free toolkit that explains what the new rules mean for employers and the legislation around it.

 

It includes: 

 

  • Risk assessment guidance – everything you need to know to create both your sexual harassment and third-party harassment risk assessments 
  • Third-party harassment cheat sheet – a quick rundown of your new duty under the Employment Rights Bill 
  • A guide to the Worker Protection Act – preventing sexual harassment in your workplace

Launch of our annual 'The Size and Structure of the Adult Social Care Workforce report'

July 29, 2025
Published July 2025 (data correct as at 2024/25) Skills for Care have launched their annual report on the size and structure of ythe care workforce This provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the size and structure of the adult social care sector and workforce in England. A short, written report is available: download a copy of the report here. The methodology for this year’s report has changed from previous years. Adult social care related roles employed by the NHS are no longer included in the headline statistics for the size of the adult social care workforce. This change has been applied retrospectively to previous years, so the trends in this report are consistent. Comparing figures from this report to previous reports will not produce a valid trend. Also, our estimates for the number of filled posts in the independent sector now come from our automated data pipeline. This has resulted in substantial improvements to our estimates over time and some figures have changed as a result from previous versions of this report. For further information, see our statement.  To download the data behind the visualisation below, including trended information, please see the Workforce estimates page.
