Bullying in the workplace has alarming prevalence, with most recent statistics indicating 9.4 % of Australian workers have been bullied in the last 12 months.

We recognise that the word can sometimes be loosely used, therefore it is not only important to educate your employees to understand the complex consequences for employers and employees when bullying is reported, but also to understand resilience and the responsibilities all employees have in the workplace.

At a personal level, workers experience a range of mental and physical health problems after they are bullied. Specifically, a recent meta-analysis of the scientific evidence found a significant negative effect of workplace bullying on a range of health and wellbeing outcomes: anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, strain, psychosomatic symptoms, burnout, and physical health complaints. In fact, Safe Work Australia reports that Workplace Bullying contributes to 39% of Australias mental health claims.

This webinar has been designed to educate employees and provide them with valuable tools to prevent negative behaviour from occurring and equip individuals with a clear understanding of what to do if it does occur. All in accordance with Australian workplace law, the program is designed to ensure all employees always remain SAFE, VALUED & RESPECTED at work.

BullyZero is Australia’s leading bullying prevention charity having educated over 400,000 Australians over the last 10 years. We are a partner of WorkSafe Victoria and a Trusted Provider of the eSafety Commissioner.
