Why Complying With The New Legislation Matters
If companies fail to take increased and sufficient actions to address and prevent workplace harassment and toxic behaviour, they face several organisational threats, including:
1. Legal Liability
Companies may face lawsuits, fines, and legal expenses resulting from employee claims of harassment, discrimination, or hostile work environments. This is particularly worrying in the context of the Worker Protection Act, which can... INCREASE tribunal compensation by 25% and lead to investigation by the Equality and Human Rights Commission.
​
2. Reputational Damage
Public scrutiny and negative media attention can tarnish the company's reputation, leading to loss of trust from customers, partners, and investors.
3. Damage to Company Culture
A culture of harassment or toxicity can erode trust, collaboration, and teamwork hindering the company's ability to attract and retain top talent. 4 out of 5 people are reported as feeling unable to report sexual harassment to their employer (source: AGR Law). When employees are unable to speak out about harassment, it not only perpetuates a toxic work environment but also erodes trust and undermines organisational culture.
4. Decreased Productivity
Hostile work environments can lead to decreased employee morale, engagement, and productivity, impacting overall business performance.
5. Employee Turnover
High levels of harassment or toxicity can drive talented employees to leave the company, resulting in recruitment costs, decreased morale among remaining staff, and loss of institutional knowledge.
6. Financial Costs
Legal fees, settlements, and compensation payouts can significantly impact the company's bottom line, leading to financial strain and decreased profitability.
7. Regulatory Compliance Issues
Failure to comply with anti-harassment laws and regulations can result in penalties from regulatory bodies and further legal repercussions.

Importance For Employee Wellbeing
Addressing sexual harassment isn't just about compliance; it’s fundamentally about safeguarding the wellbeing of your employees. Creating a safe and supportive workplace environment ensures that all staff members feel valued, respected, and protected.
Our holistic approach to employee safety fosters trust and boosts morale, leading to higher productivity and lower turnover rates. Taking action now demonstrates a commitment to your team’s mental and emotional health, showing that you prioritise more than just legal requirements.
Industry Expertise in Emerging Threats
Post-pandemic, the environment in which we work has fundamentally changed. Understanding the extended work environment is crucial in today’s corporate landscape.
The boundaries of the traditional office environment have expanded, encompassing remote workspaces, virtual meetings, travel, and social gatherings.
This extension necessitates an updated approach to safeguarding employees. According to the Sexism in the City UK Government Treasury whitepaper, sexual harassment doesn’t stop at the office door; it permeates into these extended environments where oversight may be limited.
​
In addition to our comprehensive services, Stay Safe Global is at the forefront of addressing emerging threats in the evolving workplace environment.
​
Toxic misogyny and incel culture, once confined to niche corners of the internet, have now infiltrated mainstream culture, posing significant challenges for organisations worldwide.
These harmful ideologies perpetuate violent narratives blaming women and minorities for perceived societal grievances, leading to real-world consequences such as sexual harassment and assault, even in the extended workplace environment.
Recent incidents at global software giant SAP, where employees reported being raped by colleagues during after-work events on business trips, underscore the urgent need for comprehensive policies to address such misconduct.
This shift from online extremism to real-world harm is further highlighted by Google's language analysis, which reveals parallels between online misogynistic language and far-right rhetoric.
In addition to these concerning developments, there's an emerging threat of geo-location tracking and stalking, further complicating workplace safety.
With the proliferation of digital technology, individuals are increasingly vulnerable to surveillance and harassment, both within and outside traditional office spaces. Geo-location tracking can enable perpetrators to monitor their victims' movements, posing a serious risk to their safety and well-being.
​
Overall, addressing workplace harassment and toxic behaviour is essential for safeguarding employees' well-being, maintaining a positive company culture, and protecting the organisation from significant legal, financial, and reputational risks.
At Stay Safe Global, we recognise the gravity of these evolving threats and offer tailored solutions to empower organisations to create safer, more respectful work environments.
Through holistic training and proactive measures, we help companies navigate the complexities of modern workplace dynamics and protect their employees from the damaging effects of toxic misogyny, incel culture, and geo-location stalking.
