Recent results show that more than a quarter of working Canadians have experienced sexual harassment or been affected by it. This can result in a variety of stress-related illnesses, relationship difficulties as well as upset productivity and engagement.

Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!
Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Stopping Sexual Harassment In The Workplace:

Know that when faced with unwanted and unsolicited sexual harassment, victims feel confused, frustrated and angry. They may not know how to react to the situation and may become very anxious or depressed.

Some employees will suffer the humiliation and harassment silently and when they can no longer take it, they will quietly quit.

Not addressing sexual harassment in the workplace is bad business and can create a toxic environment.

Education around sexual harassment and developing strong policies and procedures to deter it are the most effective means of minimizing its occurrence and impact.

Companies can protect their employees, and create a positive workplace culture, by implementing a comprehensive policy and providing training to employees and leaders on that policy.
