Description

Unfortunately, in the business we’re in, the team here at Insight HR, similar to other HR consultants and employment law experts, are well aware that serious issues like harassment, sexual harassment and bullying, are still happening regularly in Irish workplaces.


Despite training, despite policies, despite reporting channels, and despite the hopefully common sense approach to these things being unacceptable, these things are still happening.


So how can we build a culture that prevents this, in as much as is possible, from happening? And how important is this workplace culture element in tackling the problem?


Well that’s exactly what we’re speaking about today, as we’re delighted to be joined by our very own Susie Lowe, Workplace Investigator here at Insight HR.


 


In this episode we cover...


12:14 The Importance of Psychological Safety in the Workplace

23:43 Training and Education: Building a Culture of Awareness

37:20 The Consequences of Inaction: Real-Life Impacts of Poor Management

38:30 Conclusion and Call to Action
