Session 1 - Preventing and managing workplace bullying: working through the constraints
Knowledge with Networking is a 6 part series that will be held on the
third Wednesday of the month at the Grand Hotel, Sydney. This is an
opportunity to hear what others are doing in Health & Safety, extend
your network base and stay for the Committee meeting to understand and
influence the SIA strategy for NSW.
Session 1 addresses an emerging issue. Workplace bullying is more
common and costly than most people realise. It can make life unbearable
for employees in any industry, and ultimately undermine an
organisation’s bottom line. This session will touch on what constitutes
workplace bullying and distinguishes it from other unacceptable
behaviours at work. The constraints encountered when dealing with
bullying will also be discussed. The talk is presented by Dr Anne Wyatt and Dr Carlo Caponecchia, two of the foremost people working and researching in this area.
Speakers:
Dr Anne Wyatt, Principal – Beyond Bullying
Dr Carlo Caponecchia, University of NSW
