Policy on sexual harassment

Both nationally and internationally, there is currently significant focus on whether employees are exposed to sexual harassment at the workplace, and it is the employer’s responsibility to prevent such behaviour.

At KROMANN Law Firm, we can help your company make a policy to prevent inappropriate conduct, in order to avoid such harassment. It follows from the Danish Working Environment Act and the Danish Equal Treatment Act that every employer is obliged to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace. In addition, sexual harassment may also be punishable under the Danish Criminal Code.

To comply with occupational health and safety regulations and ensure that sexual harassment does not occur in the workplace, all companies should therefore have a clear policy on sexual harassment.

If a situation arises where an employee experiences sexual harassment, it is equally important to have a clear procedure for how such cases are handled.
