Increase in sexual harassment-related employment tribunal decisions
There has been a seven per cent increase in the number of sexual harassment-related employment tribunal decisions so far this
year, according to lawyers at Irwin Mitchell but they add that the new statistics do not fully reflect the extent of the problem.
Irwin Mitchell analysed all employment tribunal decisions across England, Wales and Scotland and discovered 125 cases in first
three quarters of 2024, compared to 117 this time last year.
