A workplace is like the human body: live a healthy lifestyle, get the occasional check-up and the big hospital visit will rarely be necessary. Maintaining a healthy workplace means having the right systems in place: getting your employment contracts and staff policies and procedures right and training and developing your managers and staff to create and maintain a meritocratic, fair, and harassment free workplace. Sometimes ‘staying healthy’ means empowering managers to make the difficult choices early and moving employees who are not suitable on before the problems really start.
