They erode psychological safety, drive talent out of organisations, expose employers to serious legal liability, and leave lasting harm on the individuals who experience them. Yet in many workplaces, bullying and harassment continue unchecked — not always because of a lack of policy, but because of a lack of awareness, confidence, and practical knowledge about what these behaviours actually look like, how they should be handled, and what rights and responsibilities exist for everyone involved.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis bullying and harassment awareness training course provides learners with a structured, comprehensive understanding of workplace bullying and harassment — from definitions, types, and psychological dynamics, through to the effects on individuals, the legal obligations of organisations, and the proactive steps that can prevent toxic behaviour from taking hold. Whether you are an employee who wants to understand your rights, a manager navigating a difficult situation, or an employer building a safer and more respectful workplace, this course gives you the tools to act with clarity and confidence.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Is Bullying and Harassment in the Workplace?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWorkplace bullying is repeated, unreasonable behaviour directed at an individual or group that creates a risk to health, safety, dignity, and psychological wellbeing. Harassment is unwanted conduct — related to a personal characteristic or otherwise — that has the purpose or effect of violating a person's dignity or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, or offensive environment. The two are closely related but legally and behaviourally distinct, and understanding the difference is a core part of this training.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBoth bullying and harassment can be overt or subtle, direct or indirect, carried out by individuals or enabled by systemic workplace structures and management styles. This course examines the full range of behaviours involved, the psychological dynamics that allow bullying to persist, and the evidence-based, practical steps that individuals, managers, and organisations can take to identify, address, and prevent them. Relevant international frameworks from the ILO, OSHA, and WHO recognise workplace bullying and harassment as significant occupational health and safety concerns (ILO)(OSHA)(WHO).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho Is This Bullying and Harassment Training For?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis course is relevant to anyone who works in or manages a professional environment — and particularly to those with formal responsibilities for workplace conduct, culture, or employee welfare.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis course is suitable for:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eEmployees at any level\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e who want to understand what constitutes bullying and harassment, recognise it when it occurs, and know what steps to take if they or a colleague are affected\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eManagers and supervisors\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e who carry responsibility for team conduct, are required to respond to complaints, or face the challenge of managing a bully within their team\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eHR professionals and people managers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e who handle disciplinary processes, grievance procedures, and workplace investigations\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eEmployers and business owners\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e who need to embed a clear anti-bullying and harassment policy, understand their legal obligations, and build a genuinely respectful workplace culture\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eCompliance and health and safety teams\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e responsible for ensuring organisational policies, training programmes, and reporting processes are fit for purpose\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eContact officers and designated wellbeing leads\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e whose role includes supporting colleagues who report bullying or harassment\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eOrganisations across all sectors\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e — including education, healthcare, hospitality, retail, manufacturing, and professional services — where team dynamics and workplace culture require proactive management\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Does This Bullying and Harassment Course Cover?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis course is structured across six modules that move from awareness and understanding through to action, prevention, and cultural change.

The consequences for individuals include anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, physical illness, reduced confidence, and long-term career impact. For organisations, the costs are equally serious: high staff turnover, increased absence, reduced productivity, damaged team morale, failed recruitment, and significant legal and financial exposure through formal grievances, employment tribunal claims, and reputational damage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe ILO identifies violence, bullying, and harassment at work as a fundamental threat to dignity, health, and safe working conditions — recognising in its Violence and Harassment Convention (C190) that employers have a duty to prevent and address these behaviours (ILO). OSHA similarly recognises workplace harassment and psychological harm as occupational health concerns requiring proactive employer response (OSHA). Organisations that fail to provide structured bullying and harassment awareness training, maintain up-to-date policies, or act on complaints leave themselves exposed — legally, operationally, and reputationally. This course equips every level of an organisation with the awareness, skills, and knowledge to close that gap.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Global Safety Academy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54038611722579,"sku":null,"price":21.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/8591\/0099\/files\/BullyingandHarassmentAwarenessTraining.png?v=1781848286","url":"https:\/\/globalsafetyacademy.net\/products\/bullying-and-harassment-awareness-training","provider":"Global Safety Academy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
