The industry initiative tackling sexual harassment in advertising, TimeTo, has launched a comprehensive festive party guide to promote safe and respectful celebrations. 

The guide, available on the TimeTo website, is designed to ensure harassment-free holiday events for all industry professionals. It follows the Worker Protection Act 2023, which amended the Equality Act 2010 and came into effect in the UK in October. This new legislation introduces significant changes to workplace harassment prevention.

Aimed at workers across all levels, from employees to senior leaders, the Festive Season Party guide provides essential information and resources to help party attendees, including understanding rights, recognising inappropriate behaviour and taking necessary action if needed.

Pippa Glucklich, Chair of TimeTo, said, “As we approach the festive season, it’s crucial that we all help create a joyful atmosphere without the shadow of sexual harassment.”

She added, “Our party season guide is designed to help everyone enjoy the festivities while feeling safe and respected. We want to guide people on maintaining a positive environment and remind them that support is available if they are affected by harassment. Let’s work together to ensure this festive season is memorable for all the right reasons.”
