The Respect@Work report takes this view, I was delighted to see.
So we strongly endorse the article’s points #1, #5, and #6 in particular: hopefully the new ‘positive duty’ on employers will drive meaningful change. And we have developed a comprehensive evidence-based toolkit [on a 16Gb USB drive] to help individuals with that.
