"BBC Bullying- "troubling""

The pdf of the BBC's "Respect At Work" review may be found here.

The Review was commissioned by the BBC Executive Board under the executive sponsorship of Lucy Adams, Director of Human Resources. Dinah Rose QC, a barrister with expertise in human rights, discrimination and employment law, has been engaged to advise throughout, and to offer an independent perspective, and has assisted in the authorship of the report and recommendations.

The Guardian has a report on Dinah Rose's speech at a BECTU- organised event "Britain's Got Bullies" here, by Maggie Brown.

""There is huge pressure on costs, redundancies, you have a lot of insecure, stressed people, a high risk of bullying behaviour,"

"A lot are obvious features of an industry with people on very short-term contracts, four to six months, desperate to get another job, while there are 15 others who want your job at the same time."

Donna Taberer, BBC head of public partnerships, said the corporation is at the start of a process of change, and top staff will no longer be seen as "untouchable"."
