Abstract

Stalking is a prevalent phenomenon that has major negative psychological, physical, social and financial sequelae. Although workplaces are creating and extending policies to respond to domestic abuse, little attention has been paid to workplace-based stalking. The present study took a mixed methods approach to examining and comparing 49 cases of stalking that began in the workplace and 92 cases of ex-partner stalking that began elsewhere and extended to the workplace. Workplace stalkers were reported to manipulate workplace practices to harass and gain proximity to their targets. Significant consequences for both complainants and workplaces were recorded, ranging from discomfort through to sexual and physical assault and career disruption and loss. A minority of complainants in both subsets reported the stalking to their managers, and only half of these were satisfied with the responses they received. Recommendations concerning the recognition and management of stalking in work environments are provided.
在工作场所跟踪。
跟踪是一种普遍现象,具有严重的负面心理,身体,社会和经济后遗症。虽然工作场所正在制定和扩大应对家庭暴力的政策,但很少有人关注工作场所的跟踪行为。本研究采用混合方法,对49起始于工作场所的跟踪案件和92起始于其他地方并扩展到工作场所的前伴侣跟踪案件进行了调查和比较。据报道,职场跟踪者操纵工作场所的惯例来骚扰和接近他们的目标。对投诉人和工作场所造成的严重后果都有记录,从不适到性和身体攻击以及职业中断和损失。在这两个群体中,都有少数人向他们的经理报告了跟踪行为,其中只有一半的人对他们收到的回应感到满意。就工作环境中跟踪行为的识别和管理提出了建议。
