Victimisation

Victimisation occurs when someone is unfairly treated or targeted because they have made a complaint, raised a concern, or are associated with another person who has done so. It often involves actions like harassment, threats, or discrimination intended to intimidate or punish the individual for their involvement in protected activities. Essentially, it's a form of retaliation that discourages people from speaking out or asserting their rights, and it is usually considered unlawful in workplaces and other settings.
