Addressing the complexity of violence in the workplace

Description
Workplace toxicity and biases significantly impact employee well-being and organisational success, with 60% of employees experiencing toxic behaviour and 76% citing it as a reason for leaving a job. Women, in particular, face higher rates of discrimination, hampering their career growth and overall company performance. This session, designed in depth with its participants, will explore the ways in which violence can be tacked in the workplace and also how organisations can protect women against domestic violence. Some expert recommendations will be formulated in order to pave the way to concrete action against violence and harassment.
