Publication of Directive no. 1385 <\/strong>of 14 May 2024<\/strong> \u2018on combating violence against women<\/strong> and domestic violence\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim of this measure is to effectively combat the still unfortunately widespread phenomenon of gender-based violence<\/strong>, focusing in particular on the precise definition of crimes<\/strong> and imposable penalties<\/strong>, the protection<\/strong> of<\/strong> and assistance to victims<\/strong>, and access to justice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In particular, it stipulates that Member States shall adopt appropriate measures<\/strong> to combat all forms of violence<\/strong> against women and domestic violence, including sexual violence, female genital mutilation, forced marriages, forced abortion and sterilisation, sexual harassment<\/strong> and the various forms of online violence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With specific reference to\u00a0workplaces<\/strong>, the directive specifies that\u00a0sexual harassment in the workplace<\/strong>\u00a0is considered a form of\u00a0discrimination<\/strong>\u00a0on the grounds of gender and, as such, is the source of significant negative consequences for both victim and employer.\u00a0\u00a0These are, in fact, the discriminatory phenomena that offend the dignity of female workers, run counter to the principles of corporate sustainability, and have a negative impact on work organisation, reputation, and productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to offer adequate protection<\/strong> to female workers who are victims, the Directive stipulates that should sexual harassment at work be a criminal offence<\/strong> under national law, it is necessary to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– offer internal or external counselling<\/strong>, both to victims and employers. This service should include information on how to deal with cases as well as solutions available for removal of the offender from the company;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– take preventive specific actions<\/strong>, such as awareness-raising campaigns or programmes, in sectors where female workers are most vulnerable;<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– train supervisory staff <\/strong>in the workplace so that they are able to recognise<\/strong>, prevent<\/strong> and deal with<\/strong> the phenomenon even if it involves a third party or a person other than a colleague (e.g. a client).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Member States will have until 14 May 2027<\/strong> to transpose the new provisions of this Directive into their national laws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Italy, several bills have already been tabled to combat the phenomenon of sexual harassment in the workplace, providing, among other things, for the introduction of the crime of \u2018sexual harassment\u2019<\/strong> and the aggravating circumstance of the act if it is committed in the workplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The issue of harassment in the workplace is, therefore, at the centre of work by both national and EU legislators and is of fundamental importance for companies that intend to pursue ethical and sustainable management in terms of ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
