Bullying, harassment and discrimination in the workplace can constitute a significant threat to the health, safety and welfare of employees. It also has the potential to generate wider consequences for employers, including reduced profitability, low morale, increased absenteeism, and staff turnover.
In addition to training all staff on what is considered as appropriate behaviour, it is also important to train your managers in managing inappropriate behaviour, should it arise.
This seminar covers:
- What constitutes bullying, harassment and discrimination in the workplace, including out-of-hours conduct
- The impacts of inappropriate behaviour in the workplace
- How to manage and respond to inappropriate behaviour while managing legal risk
- What serious misconduct is and how to manage it while managing the legal risks
- When and what disciplinary action may be necessary depending on a range of factors
- Unfair dismissal and other legal issues
- Proactive measures in your workplace to prevent inappropriate behaviour
