U.K. Film Industry Welcomes #MeToo-Inspired Legislation Tackling Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

Britain’s leading entertainment industry unions have welcomed a government proposal introducing new legislation tackling sexual harassment in the workplace.

Key points in the legislation will include employers having a duty to prevent sexual harassment as well as protecting employees from third-party harassment. The government has also proposed extending the limitation period for making an employment tribunal claim from three to six months.

The Equality Act 2010, which sets out which types of employees will be protected by the proposed legislation, extends to workers but stops short of including independent contractors. The only mention of freelance workers in the government’s report says they will be considered in a “wider future review” of the Equality Act 2010.
