Here is a great article written by Leah Stringer on this thought provoking topic. Emotional Workplace Safety has been an area to really think about with all the latest news of sexual harassment. This article offers a great outline to help create a  much safer workplace for all victims and employees

Leah writes, “But when it comes to designing emotional safety into the built environment, there really are no formal guidelines. Most protocols around the prevention of sexual harassment are written for management or human resources audiences, and design guidelines for those with PTSD are often written for hospitals. But that doesn’t mean those of us who design and operate offices, schools, courthouses, and other workplaces should be let off the hook. There is a lot we can and should do to prevent the opportunity for bad behavior, and to foster a psychologically safe and healthy work environment.”

How could you make your office environment or office building much safer and open to all victims and employees?
