We are committed to taking a zero-tolerance approach to sexual misconduct in the workplace to create a culture at work where everybody feels safe.
Our new policy:
- outlines our approach to tackling sexual misconduct and dealing with perpetrators
- describes what sexual misconduct is and how to report it
- adopts and signposts to processes in other NHS England employment policies such as respect at work (including bullying and harassment), social media, grievance, disciplinary and managing concerns
- provides a summary of support available to employees
