For every worker: what bullying and harassment are, what they are not, and how to raise a concern or support a colleague.
Workplace bullying is repeated and unreasonable behaviour directed towards a worker or group of workers that creates a risk to health and safety. Harassment includes unwelcome conduct based on characteristics such as race, sex, disability or age. Both are psychosocial hazards that businesses must manage under WHS or OHS laws.
This talk explains what bullying and harassment look like, what reasonable management action is, the work conditions that let bullying grow, what bystanders can do, and how to report safely.
After the session, participants will be able to:
Yes. The slides, handout and guide are editable, and the facilitator guide marks the places to add your own procedures, contacts and photos of your workplace.
No. It is there if your business wants a record that each worker understood the key points. The attendance record on its own shows who attended and when.
Yes. Presentations, guides, workbooks and templates are supplied in editable formats so you can adapt them to your workplace. The copyright notice must stay.
Yes. The hazards and the controls in each toolbox talk apply in any workplace. The duties slide and the facilitator guide's "check before you deliver" table refer to Australian WHS and OHS laws, licences and standards, so a business elsewhere should swap those for its own country's rules. Everything is editable.
Yes. The package includes an editable certificate template, an attendance record (Word, plus an Excel register) and an optional 10-question multiple-choice assessment with an answer key, so you can record who attended and, if you choose, that each worker understood the key points. It is a certificate of completion issued by your business, not a nationally recognised qualification.
Yes. The packages are designed for face-to-face sessions and work over a video meeting platform. The facilitator guide notes where an activity needs adjusting for online delivery.
Yes, as many times as you like, for your own organisation's workers.
