Stamping out bullying at Royal Mail

In 2003, under the leadership of a new Chair and faced with the threat of a formal investigation by the Equal Opportunities Commission into complaints of sexual harassment of its female employees, Royal Mail Letters embarked on a major programme to eliminate bullying and harassment from the workplace. This case study takes a look at what it did, its ongoing efforts, and what impact it has had.
