When coworkers trying to harass you, it could be better if you speak about it in person with your immediate boss to find some solution of it. But, in case, it doesn't work, report about it in written to your immediate boss as well as concerned authorities like HR. I hope after it will be documented, things could be considered

Speak up! I know this isn't easy, but you should definitely try to speak to somebody you can trust. Feeling uncomfortable or unsafe, in the workplace (or anywhere for that matter) is unacceptable and you have the right to ensure that this kind of behaviour is put to an end.

Harassing is never okay and adults should know that. The first thing to do is if you can try and move the focus into something positive when they harass, if it doesn't help then definitely report it to your supervisor. The risk of them harassing someone other than you are high so it can't be tolerated. Everybody need to feel safe in a workplace.

Good question, I work in a very culturally diverse company and team work is vital but showing results is even more vital- hence there is a lovely back stabbing culture. What I try to be is 3 simple things Work hard, turn up mentally and promote my team Be open and honest about myself and achievements and failings Embrace the mystery of life! Eventually if I do not get the support from my management or peers escalate to the next level and try go in with a smile and say let’s tackle this problem together and see how we can make it better in the future. Good luck! 🍀

First of all, harassment at work can be reported to your superior. In most countries this is in the working rights and law. You can communicate that you are annoyed and they should stop, but even though you wouldn’t do it, your colleagues are in the wrong. If they are having a bad behavior this should be reported in your interest, the interest of your company and theirs. Now some workplaces are better than others in that matter and employees can fear to make a step and denunciate someone. Note aside, the harassers are probably counting on this fear to continue to bully as they please.

When coworkers are harassing you, the best you can probably do is to immediately report it to your employer. A workplace is supposed to be a safe place for every individual and any kind of unapologetic behavior must be reported directly to the authorities concerned. Remember, the harassing has nothing to do with you or your personality. Don't let their behavior affect your mental health. Also, try not to confront them or avoid getting into a conflict that might expose you to situations that are unfavorable, no matter how much dirty it gets. No one deserves to go through all this.

Harassment from anyone can be very distressing, let alone from the people you work with. Staying calm is key, and you should make sure that you are standing up for yourself with firm and short sentences, making it clear that it is not okay for your coworkers to speak to or about you like that. Escalating to your superior for help is also a good idea, to make sure that you are being protected and that people are held accountable for their behavior. Go as far up the chain as you need to in order to get the issue resolved. You deserve to have a work place where you feel safe and can thrive :)

So sorry to hear you're facing harassment from your co workers. It is not acceptable in any form and from anyone ! I really think that, anything wrong if not called out upon, will simply just keep on increasing and someone or other will always fall victim to it ! So, how do you feel about raising your voice against their unfair behavior towards you, do you think you should talk to them, tell them what they are doing is wrong and they should correct their behavior, maybe that could help ? Or also maybe speaking with a supervisor or someone in authority, how do you feel about telling them what's being going on with you and how it is affecting your emotional and mental health and hence your productivity in the work place ? Harassment will only increase if not called out and dealt directly with , and no body should be treated that way. The people who engage in such behavior, must be aware of the consequences of such and become more mindful of their actions. I hope things get sorted out for you sooner . Take care . 💜

Report it to your anonymous tip line if you have one. A lot of jobs have an employee assistance program who assists with things like that. If you are in a smaller company that doesn't have one, you may have to report it to your boss, but first ask your coworkers to stop the behavior on your own.

If you have a good relationship with your boss, consider talking to him first. If not, his superior. But your place of work should have a human resources department, and they are trained to help.
