1/ #Sexualharassment in the context of work is banned under European human rights law by Article 26 of the #EuropeanSocialCharter on the right to dignity at work.
This protection complements and reinforces Article 40 of the #IstanbulConvention which deals with sexual harassment more broadly.

This week, we also saw the #EuropeanSocialCharter reflected strongly in @alain-berset.coe.int
annual report and the new @coe.int Strategy on the Environment. Both developments reflect the Charter’s growing profile & the increasing recognition of its relevance in a time of democracy under pressure.

1/ Another very busy and rich week for the #EuropeanCommitteeofSocialRights.
In addition to our standard work related to the state reporting and collective complaints procedures, we held meetings with a range of colleagues and Charter stakeholders.
