Workplace Bullying Policy and Procedure

Description

An employee who believes a Workplace Bullying claim is not being dealt with appropriately by their employer can go directly to the Fair Work Commission (FWC) for assistance. Alternatively, the employee can choose to go directly to the FWC without lodging a prior claim with the employer nor consulting the organisation.

Do you have a Workplace Bullying Policy? Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) legislation in Australia requires employers to systematically address the risks of Workplace Bullying in their organisation, and to apply a risk management process to identify and control incidents of Workplace Bullying.

This Workplace Bullying Policy and Procedure can be instantly applied to your organisation to ensure that all staff, contractors, consultants, service providers, clients, customers, members, constituents, stakeholders and visitors, when engaged in your organisation’s activities, are aware of what constitutes Bullying, and agree to behave in a manner consistent with your organisation’s values.
