Guidance on Preventing Workplace Harassment and Violence

New guidance giving practical advice to businesses and employees on preventing workplace harassment and violence has been published following European level agreement between employer and trade union organisations on the necessity of raising awareness of this issue. The guidance has been produced after collaboration between the Government and employers, trade unions and other relevant agencies. As well as raising awareness of the issues, it provides employers, workers and their representatives with ways of identifying, preventing and managing problems of harassment and all forms of violence at work.

The guidance can be found here.
