The Bullies Among Us: Maintaining Civility in the Workplace
Recorded Webinar$240.00Select optionsRecorded: May 24, 2022
Length: 1 hr
SHRM Credits: 1With the return of workers to the office, there has been a stark increase in workplace bullying. With low unemployment rates and workplace morale already low, employers can neither afford nor do they want to have a bully making the work environment toxic and driving away good workers. Unfortunately, bullying often occurs outside a supervisor’s presence or in off-duty communications, namely social media. In many instances the bully is an otherwise high performer.
This session will address how to identify, document, fact find, and address protected class neutral bullying. Disciplining a bad attitude is difficult. Specific examples will be provided on how to do so in a manner that protects your organization from a legal challenge for wrongful termination. The presenters will also provide strategies to prevent workplace bullying and reduce the risks of a toxic work environment.

The presenters will provide an overview of workplace drug and alcohol issues, as well as discuss employer obligations and risks as analyzed by OSHA and applicable laws. Presenters will review drug and alcohol policies and make suggestions based on industry, paying particular attention to addressing how employers should navigate the legalization of marijuana in some states. This session will also tackle reasonable suspicion testing, including providing detailed guidance on identifying symptoms consistent with alcohol and drug impairment. It will address post-accident testing legal restrictions, pre-employment testing pros and cons, searching employees for drugs, and whether zero tolerance policies are still viable in the current workforce climate.
