About the Course

The Bullying & Harassment Training course is designed to help employees at levels to contribute to a positive work environment that is safe for everyone. It works to define bullying and harassment, how these behaviours differ from each other, and ways in which they appear the same, before going into detail about how bullying can be recognised, confronted, and eradicated.

While this course offers resources to help those who have been bullied, as well as witnesses, to combat bullying and harassment in their workplace, it also offers several preventative measures for how to maintain employee safety and wellbeing, including the responsibilities of management in the control of aggressive behaviour at work.

Available in 31 languages, the course takes around 15 minutes to complete.
