Bullying - Employees and Managers

Overview

Everyone has the right to be treated with dignity and respect at work, and yet workplace bullying is surprisingly and disappointingly common. Even if an organisation has a policy in place to deal with the issue, incidents can often go undetected or overlooked.

Bullying in the workplace can take a number of forms and can be perpetrated by managers or co-workers. It has a very serious negative impact not only for the victims but also for the organisation, resulting in low morale and an adverse working environment. This course will help managers and employers to recognise bullying behaviours and eradicate them.

By the end of this course you'll be able to:

• Identify types of bullying behaviour
• List the potential effects of bullying and harassment
• Implement a system for dealing with workplace bullying

Why Should I take this course?

Bullying and harassment can be hard to define, hard to notice and hard to tackle. This training provides guidance on what to do if you encounter bullying in the workplace –whether you are the victim, a witness, an HR professional or a manager. Understanding these behaviours is the key to eliminating them, and doing so can have extensive benefits for both the health of your staff and for a business.
