The legal standard for lone worker protection has changed
The Worker Protection Act 2023 and the Employment Rights Act 2025 have fundamentally shifted the legal burden from reactive to proactive. Employers must now anticipate and actively prevent harm — not just respond to it.
82% of property agents feel their safety is not taken seriously enough. 53% of estate agencies currently operate without any formal lone worker policy. WhatsApp check-ins and staff handbooks are legally indefensible. The October 2026 deadline for 'all reasonable steps' compliance is fast approaching.
Worker Protection Act 2023
Employers face a +25% tribunal uplift for failing to take proactive preventative steps. The average harassment award is £53,403.
Understand your obligationsEmployment Rights Act 2025
From April 2026, harassment complaints are protected whistleblowing disclosures. By October 2026, employers face liability for harassment of staff by a third-party.
