Workplace Harassment: A Context Analysis for the Romanian Managers

Abstract

Abstract The present article describes the key elements of the workplace harassment issues in general and from the Romanian official documents and regulations perspective. The divergences between these regulations and the international approaches on workplace harassment are analysed, considering the practical implications for managers and human resources departments, in order to reveal the needs for adaptation of the Romanian official framework related to this issue. Findings show that treating the harassment as discrimination, and not as form of psychological violence, creates the biggest challenges for managers
