In a corporate environment increasingly oriented toward social responsibility, compliance, and ESG principles, preventing moral and sexual harassment at work goes beyond legal compliance.
It is essential for strengthening competitiveness, protecting the company’s image, and consolidating its market position.
Labor laws require companies to review policies, conduct training, and foster a culture of respect and diversity.
Practical actions include:
1. Leadership Training: Leaders must be prepared to identify, prevent, and address harassment cases, promoting an ethical environment and accessible reporting channels. Invest consistently in training for managers and teams. Knowledge is the first step to preventing irregular practices.
2. Policy Review: Regularly update internal policies, aligning them with legal and governance requirements. Policies are an effective tool to reinforce the company’s core principles.
3. Reliable Reporting Channel: Provide a safe and confidential space for reporting incidents, including compliance with Law 14,457/2022.
4. Internal Audits: Assess the effectiveness of policies and implement necessary improvements.
Preventing harassment is more than a legal obligation: it is a strategy to attract talent, promote inclusion, and enhance the company’s reputation through respect and dignity.
