Understand the scope of the Failure to Prevent Fraud offence and its implications for different types of companies.
Failure to Prevent Fraud (FTPF): Prevention
Understand the six principles of fraud prevention to design and support effective anti-fraud controls.
IR35
IR35 is a UK tax rule designed to ensure that contractors using intermediaries like personal service companies (PSCs) pay similar tax and National Insurance to employees, when appropriate. This training explains when IR35 applies, who is responsible for assessing status, and the risks of getting it wrong.
Third-Party Harassment
Third-party harassment is unwanted behaviour by someone who is not an employee, such as a customer, supplier, contractor or visitor. While these individuals may be external to the organisation, employers have a legal duty to take reasonable steps to prevent harassment and protect the dignity and safety of everyone at work. This course explains what constitutes third-party harassment, why impact matters more than intent and how our zero-tolerance approach helps create a safe, respectful working environment. It also outlines how to respond to inappropriate behaviour, when and how to report concerns and the support available to staff who speak up.
Visual Impairment
Visual impairment covers a wide range of sight conditions that cannot be corrected by usual means, such as glasses, and it affects people in different ways. Some impairments are visible, while others may not be obvious to colleagues. This course explains what visual impairment is, the barriers that can exist in the workplace and why these barriers are about the environment, not an individual's ability. It also outlines practical actions everyone can take to remove barriers and create a more inclusive and accessible workplace.
Understanding Equality
Equality ensures that people are treated fairly and given the same opportunities, regardless of their background or personal circumstances. This training explains what equality means at work and why it is essential for creating a respectful, inclusive culture that supports both employees and organisational success.
