Sexual Safety

In September 2023, NHS England launched its first ever Sexual Safety Charter in collaboration with key partners across the healthcare system. Signatories to this charter commit to taking and enforcing a zero-tolerance approach to any unwanted, inappropriate and/or harmful sexual behaviours within the workplace, and to ten core principles and actions to help achieve this.

5.42% (2,063) of NETS respondents have reported experiencing or witnessing (5.82%, 2,217)) unwanted, harmful and/or inappropriate sexual behaviours.

The NETS 2023 reporting tool is available for those who would like to look more closely into the learner survey feedback with the NETS 2024 findings available in spring 2025.
