Safe at Work ebook

Sexualized violence is omnipresent and takes place wherever people meet - including the workplace. Sexism, sexual harassment and abuse of power are rooted deeply, often difficult to recognize and even more difficult to eliminate. Verena Arps-Roelle and Sebastian Arps want to change that. In their book, which is based on a german case study, they show how you can create a culture free of sexualized violence in three steps - as an employee, colleague, manager and employer. This book offers valuable and experience-based insights into the complex topic and expands your knowledge of legal, corporate and social aspects. It equips you with tried-and-tested methods for setting clear boundaries and shows you how to use your strengths as a person or company to prevent and intervene in order to create a safe and respectful environment. Therefore, sometimes we have to be a cactus: Learn how to use your spines to see, name and stop sexualized violence.
