    Being in a workplace that you are not constantly being harassed or belittled will mean employee's will perform better and more accurately.

    I've never felt harrassed in the workplace. I feel like our company does a good job of making everyone feel like an equal.

    Truly engaged leadership is very important, leaders are often too disconnected from the work force they don't know what's going on. Policies need to be clear and nothing will ever changed if people are not held accountable.

    I'm fortunate to work at a company where the leadership team takes harassment complaints very seriously. This is a must if we are to try to eliminate harassment in the workplace

    All companies should be a zero tolerance policy so employees can feel safe and protected.

    Training is necessary in order to bring awareness and guidelines so that all employees feel safe and protected against harassment.
