When orientating your workforce and management personel it is important to set out clear 'authority' and 'accountability' guidelines. Bullying and harassment take many forms and at times are difficult to recognise.
This is primarily a Human Resources issue but will easily become a Safety one as a "Hostile Work Environment" can cause lack of attention, short cut taking and in extreme cases unacceptable risk taking.
Ensure your workplace requirements are clear and that all levels are aware that they can bring up these points and that action will be taken. js
