It’s almost a year since the Worker Protection Act 2023 was passed and employers must take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment at work.

In social care, risks don’t always appear in obvious situations. Sexual harassment can take many forms, including:

- Unwanted messages or social media contact
- Inappropriate behaviour at workplace events (e.g. Christmas parties)
- Sexual jokes or comments in staff rooms or during handovers
- Harassment from visiting suppliers, contractors, or family members of service users
- Non-verbal actions such as staring, gestures, or displaying images

Recognising these risks is the first step to prevention.

To help, Insequa has created a free Sexual Harassment Awareness Poster, tailored for social care.

✅ Reinforces respect and safety
✅ Clarifies unacceptable behaviours
✅ Encourages staff to speak up
✅ Easy to personalise with safeguarding contact details

🌍 World Su***de Prevention Day – 10 September

Today reminds us of something vital: no one should feel alone.

In social care and beyond, compassion means walking alongside others in their most vulnerable moments. But it’s not only those receiving care who may struggle – those who give care carry heavy responsibilities too.

This year’s theme highlights the power of connection. Sometimes, it’s the smallest actions – a kind word, a pause to listen, a genuine “How are you, really?” – that make the biggest difference. https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0mN5tt0

How we can all help:

1️⃣ Listen without judgement
2️⃣ Check in with others – and yourself
3️⃣ Remember wellbeing is essential, not optional
4️⃣ Know where to find help

📞 Support:

Samaritans: 116 123
Mind: https://eu1.hubs.ly/H0mN3kR0
NHS Urgent Mental Health: Call 111

Together, let’s build a culture of compassion, connection, and hope.
