Sexual harassment advice - Irwin Mitchell’s employment law team can help

Irwin Mitchell (IM) has an enviable track record in dealing with sexual harassment and grievance procedures on both sides - working for individuals with sexual harassment cases and on behalf of employers.

Contact us for sexual harassment advice

Sexual harassment in the workplace can be tackled under two areas of legislation, The Sex Discrimination Act and The Employment Rights Act. An employer must protect employees from all forms of sexual harassment and must have grievance procedures in place. Sometimes sexual harassment allegations can be handled within these grievance proceedings; in other cases, sexual harassment cases need to be heard by independent tribunals; occasionally, where assault or criminal offences are involved, cases are taken through the courts.

We can help individuals with sexual harassment advice

If you have suffered sexual harassment in the workplace, we can explain the process and advise you on the potential level of compensation that may be relevant. We will represent you at a tribunal or in court if appropriate and help you to get a satisfactory outcome.
