Your employer should try and protect you from harassment at work. If you are being harassed and decide to come forward here are some simple steps.
- Write down what happened – dates, times, what happened, witnesses, how you felt
- If you feel safe doing so, confront the harasser and ask them to stop. Some people don’t fully understand how they are making others feel, but some do.
- Talk to your employer or a senior manager about it
- If the harasser doesn’t stop or your employer isn’t taking your complaint seriously, you should make a formal complaint. This can be made under the harassment claim under the Equality Act
