Fairhaven is pleased to boast a hugely successful working relationship between employees and volunteers, something which is the foundation of our continued success. Recent regulatory changes mean that we must formalise the requirement to ensure the continued maintenance of this relationship and as such we wish to present a Prevention of Bullying and Harassment at Work Policy.
In addition to the obligations placed upon both employers and employees by the Equality and Human Rights legislation, everyone has the right to be treated with consideration, fairness, dignity and respect. This contributes to a workplace environment in which individuals feel safe and can work effectively competently and confidently.
The policy applies to all staff working within the organisation and to all employees working off the premises. It extends to include non-permanent workers such as secondees, contractors, agency, temporary staff, consultants and any other workers.
