Toxicity in the workplace – are you experiencing this?
A toxic or hostile work environment is not simply left at the door but may seep into every aspect of your life and influence not only your mental health and stability but may and most likely will cause problems with your physical health and even your relationships outside of work.
Section 10 of the South African Bill of Rights as contained in the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa states:
“Everyone has inherent dignity and the right to have their dignity respected and protected”
The infringement of ones right to dignity and respect can take various forms including harassment, bullying and passive-aggressive behaviour.
