Dignity and respect in the world of work are essential for both an organization and employees worldwide. Psychological health and safety continue to gain import in the modern workplace. My books come out of years of tracking global laws and developments in the workplace bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, and discrimination fields as a subject matter expert, a decade at an environmental, health and safety consultancy, and many years in the employment discrimination law field.
Subjects: Law, Work & Organizational Psychology
Biography
Have been interested in fairness and respect in the workplace much of my legal career. Led me to write my book Workplace Bullying and Harassment: New Developments in International Law (2017) and to work in the employment discrimination law field where I drafted decisions for the MA Commision Against Discrimination. At my present job at an environmental, health and safety consultancy, I notice how health and safety is increasingly encompassing psychological risks in many parts of the world.Areas of Research / Professional Expertise

As the #MeToo movement has become an increasingly global and significant workplace matter, a timely resource compiling must know international workplace sexual harassment laws for the multinational employer is clearly needed.
This book provides a comprehensive compilation of global sexual harassment laws, clearly necessary in this climate but not currently existing until now. It presents legislation addressing workplace sexual harassment in over 50 countries in the European Region, Asia Pacific, Americas, and the Middle East and Africa. Within each region, the laws of individual countries are set forth, as well as some cultural context and recent developments to indicate present and future trends in workplace sexual harassment regulation.
My hope is that this book sheds more light on sexual harassment globally and adds a small part to its prevention.
