You Can STOP Harassment: Taking Responsibility, Program 1

Harassment of all kinds is a major concern in the workplace. Even one incident can prove detrimental to the work environment, as the victim may no longer feel comfortable there, and the offender could be facing a lawsuit in the near future. So what kind of behavior is tolerable? And how do you make sure you don’t cross the line? The key is not the intention behind the behavior, but its effects. Learn how to identify, as well as combat, harassment through this Video On Demand training.

Harassment can be present even if it does not meet the standard needed to state a legal claim. Any offensive or disrespectful behavior can conceivably be classified as harassment, which is why it is so important to know the power your words and actions may have on someone else. You must learn how to set boundaries and know how each individual may react to your behavior; everyone may handle things differently. If you put yourself in the shoes of the offended party, or even of a neutral observer, it will become easier to see how your actions affect those around you.

Gain this insight, among others, by following the information presented here. Utilize this training video and help prevent harassment in the workplace.
