On Monday, 20th January 2025, Donald Trump will be sworn in as president of the US, again. The outcome of the US presidential election has sparked strong reactions internationally, including here in the UK.

Trump’s controversial legacy includes numerous allegations of sexual harassment, raising questions about workplace culture, power dynamics, and how we respond to these issues. In this episode, I will explore what this means for UK businesses and employees and how settlement agreements might be affected as companies and workers reflect on what this new era means for them.

A second Trump presidency implies a permissiveness in the US when it comes to sexual harassment. This contrasts with the tightening of anti-sexual harassment legislation in the UK. The combination of a permissive attitude in the US permeating UK work culture and a simultaneous development of UK law to prevent sexual harassment could create a perfect storm for a rise in workplace disputes involving sexual harassment. This may drive an increase in the use of settlement agreements both to settle claims and to get rid of employees who pose a risk under emerging UK legislation.
