The Worker Protection Act 2023 comes into force on 26 October 2024, imposing a new, proactive duty on all employers across the UK to take reasonable steps to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
With at least 1 in 5 men and nearly half of all women experiencing sexual harassment at work, this new compliance duty is an important step employers must prepare for. The new “preventative duty” shifts beyond reacting to complaints and requires employers to take steps to prevent harassment from occurring in the first place.
Critically, the meaning of reasonable steps will vary from company to company, meaning employers will have to prove they have conducted a thorough risk assessment and understood what proactive steps look like in their business.
In this episode, VinciWorks compliance experts will guide you through the process of complying with the Worker Protection Act.
From assessing the risk of sexual harassment in the workplace to tracking incidents and customising training, this free, one-hour episode will make sure your office is ready to fight back against sexual harassment.

The pace of AI regulation is heating up. From the monumental AI Act passed by the EU, countries and states around the world adopting copycat laws, to commitments by the new UK government to better regulate artificial intelligence.
Regulators and legislators are racing to ensure they are not left behind by the AI revolution, and can levy ever larger fines on companies who get things wrong. As companies and industries race to ensure they are AI-ready, the cost of a compliance failure is ticking up.
With potential fines that could dwarf GDPR, getting it wrong when rolling out AI technology could be devastating. In this episode, VinciWorks compliance experts will discuss critical upcoming AI regulations in the UK.
From fines on compliance failure to possible new protections for workers, the UK has fallen behind on AI regulation recently but looks set to catch up quickly. We’ll also consider the implementation of the EU’s AI Act - the blockbuster regulation which has set a new global standard. And we’ll consider new regulations across the world from key US states like California and AI laws in Brazil, China and the Middle East.
Key points this podcast will cover:
The UK is set to go to the polls on Thursday, 4 July in a seismic election which could see a significant shift in the next UK government’s regulatory priorities.
Every sector could be impacted and every area of compliance is likely to be reviewed by the next government. From overhauls of financial services regulation, reviews of data protection law, closer alignment with EU regulations and an expansion of health and safety protections, the next parliament will see compliance at the centre of the regulatory agenda.
Listen to our special pre-election podcast for a detailed look at the likely priorities of the next UK government. Our compliance experts will unpick party manifestos and pre-election promises to help uncover what this election will mean for your organisation.

Bribery and corruption are not new issues. But they remain impressively persistent in their ability to wreak havoc and cause trouble. Companies are losing hundreds of thousands of pounds to these schemes, not to mention reputational damage and legal action. In this webinar we will look at the different types of bribery risks your company can face, how to assess the specific dangers to your company and what you can do to mitigate those risks so you can sleep at night.
In this episode, we look at key information on bribery legislation, the myriad of ways companies can get caught up in bribery and the implications if a company doesn't have effective anti-bribery policies in place. Significantly, we will guide companies in how to manage their bribery and corruption risks, develop an effective anti-bribery programme and learn how to mitigate the risks of bribery and corruption.
The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has now been in force for six years. During that time, fines have totalled billions of euros, with over €1 billion in fines coming in the past 12 months. The most recent fines show that both large and small businesses are subject to regulators’ scrutiny.
With fines and enforcement actions, developments in GDPR case law and new challenges of AI, data protection remains one of the most complex areas of compliance. Despite best efforts, many organisations are still falling short when it comes to getting GDPR right.
In this podcast, we examine GDPR’s widespread impact not just in Europe but around the world. As places like Brazil, California, and even China race to enact GDPR-like protections, what does the future hold for data privacy?

Neurodiversity is becoming more understood as a workplace issue. As many as 1 in 7 people in the UK are neurodivergent, meaning that organisations that fail to meet the needs of their neurodivergent staff and clients are neglecting a significant demographic. Although there are challenges associated with these differences, there are also many strengths. At the same time, failing to make workplaces inclusive of neurodiversity is an increasing risk. Over a hundred cases of neurodiversity discrimination were taken to employment tribunals last year, with almost none the year before. Organisations that fail to put in place the right policies and procedures to support neurodivergent staff are at risk of losing talented staff, as well as the risk of legal action. Making a workplace that is neurodiversity friendly doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive. In this episode, we’ll look at what neurodiversity is, strategies to support neurodivergent staff at work, and what policies and procedures organisations should have in place. This one-hour session will cover: - What is neurodiversity and what are different neurodivergent conditions? - The challenges faced by neurodivergent staff at work - Strategies to support and encourage diversity of thought at work - Short workplace scenario clips on how organisations can support neurodivergent people - Supporting neurodivergent staff in the workplace - Creating policies and procedures inclusive of neurodiversity
Since 1 April 2023, all firms in the regulated sector have been required to carry out proliferation financing (PF) risk assessments. This applies to all regulated entities, from law firms to financial services, casinos to cryptocurrency. Regulated entities can create a new risk assessment on proliferation financing or incorporate PF risks into existing AML and terrorist financing risk assessments. However, regulators expect firms to take action to understand the risk of PF and how to mitigate it in their business. Failing to do so can result in a breach of the Money Laundering Regulations. One year into this new requirement on the regulated sector, how effective have the new regulations been? What are the key strategies for compliance, and what are the best practice tips for ensuring PF obligations are met? In this episode, we’ll look at the issue of proliferation financing in detail, discuss strategies for compliance, and share best practices for understanding and mitigating PF risks. This one-hour session will cover: - What proliferation financing is and the jurisdictions and industries at risk - The differences and similarities between proliferation financing, money laundering and terrorist financing - Practical examples of how proliferation financing can happen - Proliferation red flags and high risk indicators - Strategies and technologies to counter the risk of proliferation financing - How to undertake a proliferation financing risk assessment
