‘Government, regulators and employers have been dodging their responsibilities for far too long.’

The government, regulators and employers are failing in their responsibilities to tackle sexual harassment in the workplace, the Women and Equalities Committee have said in a report they released this week following a wide-ranging six-month inquiry.

The Committee found that sexual harassment at work is widespread and commonplace but there has been a failure to tackle unlawful behaviours, despite the government’s obligations under international law.
