Bullies in the Workplace: Strategies to Reduce the Risks of Abusive Behavior

Course Description:

Is bullying in the workplace against the law? According to 13 states that have introduced anti-bullying legislation it is.

The pending bills vary slightly, but the overall gist is to allow employees to sue their employers for bullying or offensive behavior even when the conduct doesn’t meet standards for discrimination or infliction of emotional distress.

And if these new bills are passed, employment lawyers predict a flood of new costly lawsuits.

There’s no foolproof way to identify potentially abusive employees or completely prevent workplace bullying. But you can control the risk by learning to recognize warning signs and how to craft and enforce strict “anti-bully” policies.

In this invaluable audio conference, CCM’s expert faculty will offer best practice tactics for identifying, preventing, and resolving bullying in your workplace. You’ll gain hands-on advice for establishing and enforcing standards of employee conduct for disciplining (even terminating) employees responsible for creating a hostile work environment.

You’ll also learn how to:

Spot a bonafide bully before it’s too late
Effectively manage bullies and ultimately weed them out
Avoid hiring potential bullies in the first place
Incorporate tactics to relieve tension and diffuse hostility
Identify and limit the health risks to the bully’s target
Utilize strategies to de-escalate situations before they become dangerous
Convince your executive team that bullying is no longer un-discussable
Make the business case and get C-suite buy-in to end bullying once and for all
