People to People Communication: Preventing and Resolving Harassment for a Healthy Work Environment


Making choices

Do the following words describe what you find in your workplace?

  • Respect
  • Honest feedback
  • Acceptance of different working styles
  • Openness to change
  • Integrity

Here's an opportunity to explore the subject of harassment prevention and resolution in the workplace and to build on what you already know.

Note

Harassment is a complex matter. What one person considers as proper behaviour, another may perceive to be harassment. In many cases, the lines are not sharply defined. Education, conversations, reflection and awareness of basic human values are the beginning. The test is in how we treat one another in our daily interactions. Often, what is needed is simple, basic decency.
