Hostile Work Environment
Stronger legislation that calls for vast improvements in hostile work environments is highly necessary. While governmental interference might not take care of all problems, forcing companies to accept their responsibility in providing a safe workplace for employees is essential. If they aren’t forced to clean up the work place it really won’t happen. There are too many companies that are currently in violation of the existing standards that face no consequences because employees are fearful of losing their jobs should they complain. There are too many companies that provide the bare minimum and offer only limited benefits to their employees who fall ill from the hostility of the work environment.
