Both in and outside of work, we all have a responsibility to act when we see inappropriate behaviour including bullying and harassment.

It can be difficult to know what to say or do, and the best course of action often depends on the circumstances.

Please take time to complete the short Moodle course available as part of University of Glasgow's equality and diversity training resources.
