Is your workplace toxic?
Writing in this week’s NLJ, Andrew Pavlovic, partner at CM Murray, looks into the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) review on workplace environments, focusing on firm culture and regulatory misconduct.
Pavlovic investigates what the review means for firms and highlights issues raised, including sections on unreasonable workloads and working hours as well as the introduction of a ‘bystander obligation’ where individuals are required to challenge unwanted behaviour where they are not the object of it. He writes: ‘There remains a risk that junior solicitors witnessing unwanted behaviour may now face the additional worry of potential regulatory action for a failure to challenge the behaviour of others.’
