Harassment, Bullying and the Law
It is estimated that bullying in the workplace costs employers more than £2bn per year in sick pay, staff turnover and lower productivity. It is therefore crucial for your managers to understand their pivotal role in bringing about change and in ensuring compliance both with the law and with organisational expectations.
