Guidance on tackling bullying and harassment

Overview

A bullying and harassment policy allows an employer to communicate to all employees the types of behaviour that are not acceptable and includes a commitment to promote a positive environment within the workplace and during work related activities outside the workplace.

This tool provides details on the practical steps that organisations can take to ensure a positive work environment. A proactive organisation will communicate a policy that not only protects against bullying across all of the six diversity groups, but will also create an environment that is more diverse and productive.
