Harassment Risk Assessment Toolkit
£135
From 30th October 2026, employers must take all reasonable steps to prevent harassment, including harassment by third parties such as customers, clients and service users. A policy alone won't be enough. You'll need to show evidence that you identified the risks in your organisation and took proactive steps to address them.
This toolkit gives you everything you need to get started.
What's included
- A harassment risk assessment template to document the specific risks in your workplace, including third-party risks.
- A worked example showing you how to complete it for a small organisation.
- A step-by-step guide walking you through the process of completing your own risk assessment.
- A practical guide to all reasonable steps — covering what "all reasonable steps" actually means in practice, what evidence you need to keep, and how to approach training, reporting and culture in a small organisation.
- Provided as an Excel document, ready to edit and adapt for your organisation.
Why you need it
The risk assessment is the foundation of your defence if a harassment claim is ever brought against you. Without one, it will be very difficult to show compliance regardless of what else you have in place. This toolkit takes the guesswork out of where to start and what you need to cover.
