Joint Policy- Positions to Address Gender Based violence at the Workplace

While governments are responsible for ensuring that national legislation and institutional frameworks address workplace violence, the workplace itself is recognized as a relevant context in which this matter can be discussed with a view to prevention.6 Employers and employees can tackle workplace challenges through participatory dialogue or collective bargaining as is the case in unionized environments. This policy is subject to the laws of the specific territory and would not supersede any law.
