This Episode: `Managing Misconduct – with Eleanor Manley`

Eleanor Manley is the co-founder of Metta Space, and a specialist in helping companies to prevent, report & resolve workplace misconduct.

Eleanor joins Lucinda to discuss the most effective ways of managing misconduct in the workplace – from prevention, to reporting and resolution – and the fascinating role that technology is having in helping to highlight misconduct.

Key Takeaways

Women are more likely to resign in most cases, than report a case, meaning that retention plays a huge role in misconduct situations.
Misconduct is defined as anything including sexual harassment, bullying, discrimination, but also fraud and bribery.
In the new working world, there is a whole new set of rules and etiquette that may cause people to misunderstand the way we are meant to be operating. This may causes cases where learning moments are required.
The main aim of resolution is to empower HR to be able to resolve cases before more stringent methods are required.
