Protection against Harassment and Bullying

Protection against harassment and bullying in the context of teachers' rights and employment law ensures that educators work in a safe and respectful environment. This means that teachers have the right to be free from unwanted behavior that creates a hostile workplace, whether from colleagues, students, or parents. Laws and policies safeguard teachers by outlining unacceptable behaviors, providing a framework for reporting incidents, and ensuring appropriate investigations and consequences. Schools are responsible for fostering a positive culture and protecting teachers from any form of mistreatment, thereby enabling them to perform their duties effectively.
