5 Tips to Stop Harassment at Work The harassment cases involving employment are exploding in the media.As an employer, what can you do to limit harassment in the workplace? As an employee, what can you expect your company to do to protect yourself? 1. Be Watchful – Monitor your workplace as much of what happens between employees is visible to the naked eye. Employers and managers should walk the aisles, frequent local water holes, and don’t be a stranger at company birthday celebrations. Off hours may be more telling that work hours. 2. Set A Strict Dating Policy In Writing – Adopt a clear policy stating no dating between employees (or one has to resign) or at the minimum, no dating in the same department. Dating among employees often makes other staff feel uncomfortable. 3. Communicate The Policies To All Employees - Ensure your employee manual addresses effective policies and consistently enforces them. Make attendance at employee meetings to discuss company policies mandatory and post information on employee bulletin boards. 4. Act ImmediatelyTo Investigate Complaints Of Harassment - When an employee complains to you, take it seriously, write a written report and investigate. It’s a good idea to file a report with the police. 5. Do Computer Checks - This can be difficult for employees as they feel their computer belongs to them. Employers do have the right to review emails, but there are state by state limitations, so consult your company’s legal counsel.
