Why Bullying & Harassment Training Matters in the Workplace
Bullying and harassment in the workplace can have serious consequences for employees, teams, and the organization as a whole.
When not tackled, these issues can lead to a number of issues, including an increase in workplace absence, high staff turnover, lower productivity, and a drop in employee engagement and overall morale.
There are also the legal and reputational risks to consider. Complaints, for example, can escalate and lead to formal action, and potentially lead to reputational damage.
In addition to the legal considerations, we have a moral right to look after and protect our employees, particularly given that bullying can result in stress and other health conditions for the people affected.
For organizations, the challenge is not only recognizing these issues but responding to them appropriately and consistently.
This is where well-designed and structured workplace training can be extremely helpful because it can give employees and managers a clear plan for identifying, addressing, and preventing bullying and harassment at work.

FAQs
Can I use these materials to train managers and employees together?
Absolutely. The training materials are designed to be suitable for training everyone in the company. Managers, supervisors, team members, HR staff, and all employees, as bystanders, have a role to play in preventing and addressing bullying and harassment, and the materials make those roles really clear.
You might decide to run mixed sessions with managers and staff training together, or run manager-only groups if you prefer.
What’s the difference between overt bullying and the more subtle, covert kind?
Overt bullying is the type that most people can visualize, i.e., things such as a person shouting at someone else, threats being made, or someone humiliating another person in front of others.
Covert bullying is often more subtle, quieter, and harder to spot. It might involve excluding someone from conversations, withholding information they need, spreading rumors, sabotaging their work, or playing mind games with them.
In the training materials, we look at both types, along with other patterns such as mobbing, delegated bullying, and cyberbullying.
