Introduction

In February 2014, WorkSafe New Zealand, in conjunction with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, released a comprehensive set of guidelines – Preventing and responding to workplace bullying. The Guidelines represent New Zealand’s first centralised attempt at defining the concept of bullying at a practical level. But what do they mean for lawyers? This webinar aims to explore key aspects of the Guidelines and identify what practitioners need to be aware of in advising on, investigating or litigating workplace bullying claims in light of the Guidelines’ release.
