Do we need to talk about sexual harassment in the workplace?
The upcoming Worker Protection Act 2023 will significantly impact financial institutions by enforcing stricter sexual harassment policies. As the Act mandates comprehensive preventive measures and robust reporting mechanisms, institutions must align their frameworks to comply or face heightened financial and reputational risks.

- Institutions must implement clear policies, training programs, and reporting mechanisms to address and prevent sexual harassment, which will affect their financial exposure and organizational culture.
- Non-compliance with the Act can lead to significant financial penalties and reputational damage, highlighting the importance of a comprehensive sexual harassment policy.
- Adhering to the Act not only mitigates risks but also enhances an institution's reputation, boosts employee morale, and attracts top talent by demonstrating a commitment to ethical practices and inclusivity.
