Prevention versus Intervention: Harassment leaves scars on a workplace that are difficult to heal, even if proper procedures are followed. We can do more to:
  • inoculate employees from the worst effects of workplace harassment;
  • build teams that naturally repel harassing behaviour;
  • develop psychologically safe leaders who address issues effectively;
  • create a culture that does not allow harassment to go unnoticed;
  • update policies to provide clear expectations and consistent consequences.
Learning to prevent harassment from occurring is a better plan than waiting to intervene after the fact.
