My ref: EO/4

Circular No. NP/126/16

                                                                                    
TO: ALL BRANCHES & REGIONAL COUNCILS

Dear Colleague,

SEXUAL HARASSMENT – TUC SURVEY

Recent TUC polling indicates that sexual harassment is still rife in many workplaces. These findings are in line with European data on the extent of sexual harassment. As part of a project on sexual harassment in the workplace, the TUC would like to hear about your experiences either directly or as a rep of sexual harassment.

Please complete this short survey to tell the TUC about your experience. The information you share will be treated in confidence and the survey can be completed anonymously. If anyone is prepared to speak to the TUC and/or to the media please do add their contact details.

The RMT is also committed to tackling sexual harassment and assault and is the process of putting together a guidance booklet to help reps and branches deal with these issues. Please do also copy any case studies of sexual harassment and how it has been dealt with to our Equal Opportunities Officer, Jess Webb (j.webb@rmt.org.uk).

I would be grateful if you could bring this circular to the attention of all members.

Yours sincerely,
 
Mick Cash
General Secretary
