Employment law eLearning
Interactive, engaging, and meaningful, our eLearning provides a scalable solution for upskilling your people in key employment law topics.
Our straight-talking, user-friendly approach makes employment law memorable and manageable, ensuring you’re communicating effectively the ‘need to know’ messages.
What we cover
We currently have a three-part ‘anti-harassment’ suite of eLearning designed to ensure you comply with the new duty to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment at work and deliver a clear and consistent message about expected standards of behaviour.
We’re continually expanding our eLearning offering, so if you don’t see what you need, please get in touch using the form on the right. As part of the Empowering People Group, we have a specialist learning division that can support extensive session titles.
Some of our sessions...
Preventing sexual harassment at work
Our session supports your compliance with the new proactive duty to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment at work.
It only goes a long way to avoiding liability in respect of any claim, but if you’re found liable for sexual harassment then your organisation should be in the best position possible to avoid the 25% increase in compensation by having this type of training in place.
eLearning also provides an excellent audit trail and completion reporting should you ever need to evidence this.

Better banter - humour vs harassment
“It was just a bit of banter”…if we had a pound for every time we’ve heard this excuse used as a justification for inappropriate behaviour.
We know that banter isn’t always a bad thing it helps teams gel, engage with each other, and create a fun working environment. But it can quickly get out of hand and expose your organisation to significant legal risk.
Our session helps to protect your business by clearly setting out where the line is drawn between humour and harassment, when the law gets involved, what’s protected, and how to raise concerns.

Equality, diversity and inclusion
We all have a role to play in creating and sustaining a respectful, diverse and inclusive workplace.
When we meet and work with those who are different from ourselves, it’s important to understand how our actions and the things we say can impact others.
Our sessions ensures your people are clear about what is meant by ‘equality’, ‘diversity’ and ‘inclusivity’, understand what’s protected by law, have the confidence to communicate in a way which makes people comfortable, and can address inappropriate behaviour if it arises.

What our clients think…
Proactively rolling out training on preventing sexual harassment well ahead of the October 2024 deadline was a key priority for us—not just to meet the new legal duty, but to make a clear statement about the kind of culture we want to maintain at Poundland. We chose this eLearning because it was refreshingly straight-talking, accessible, and genuinely user-friendly. It was important to us that this topic was approached with the right tone, and the content struck that balance really well.
We tailored the course so it felt completely ours—from the branding and tone, right through to specific scenarios that reflected the real challenges that can be faced in our sector. The Halborns team turned these bespoke changes around in just two weeks, which meant we could roll it out to all 16,000 colleagues on time. Integration with our LMS was simple too, which made the whole process really smooth.
The feedback from colleagues has been really positive—particularly the inclusion of a trigger warning at the start, which colleagues really appreciated. It’s given us peace of mind from a compliance perspective, especially knowing the content is kept up to date for us. But more than that, it’s helped reinforce the kind of respectful, inclusive workplace we’re committed to building. We’d highly recommend!
