Why people don't bring forward complaints


  • Fear that nothing will be done
  • Fear that they or the complaint won't be taken seriously
  • Fear of reprisals from the perpetrator—especially if it is a supervisor or instructor
  • Fear that they will be told they "asked" for it
  • Fear of being blamed or ridiculed
  • Afraid they will be told to "lighten up"
  • Fear of getting a bad reputation
  • Fear of appearing incompetent, or unable to handle difficult situations
  • Fear of being labelled a “troublemaker"
  • Reluctance to get the perpetrator into trouble
  • Feeling alone or isolated, that no one else objects to the behaviour
  • Feeling embarrassed or humiliated by the behaviour

Such a "shield" would damp   the force of explosions . It doesn't build an invisible wall of force, but rather makes shock waves bend around objects, just as some high-tech materials bend light and make things invisible. Brian J. Tillotson, a senior research fellow at Boeing, said the idea occurred to him after noticing the kinds of injuries suffered by soldiers who served in Iraq and Afghanistan. "We were doing a much better job of stopping shrapnel," Tillotson told Live Science. "But they were   coming home with brain injuries ." Though the armor plating on a military vehic...

It is important to have those types of skills in any environment in the workplace. I was working as a research officer at an innovation centre, and I have to learn quickly and work on projects that is on a tight time schedule. So, that helped me to brush up on my skill and stand among others with the progress. In an office we should be supportive of each other and work as a team, then we can gain better results.

The global pandemic has forced a mass re-appraisal of work. As a result, many are beginning to ask themselves whether they can successfully change careers and, if so, what skills do they have to offer new employers. The answer likely lies in you...
