This animation introduces the key concepts surrounding bullying and harassment in the workplace, to help promote understanding and raise awareness of these issues.
It follows the Royal Society of Chemistry’s research on women’s retention and progression in the chemical sciences and LGBT+ physical scientists’ experiences of the workplace. These reports evidenced widespread incidences of discrimination, bullying, harassment and exclusionary behaviour in the workplace, which we are committed to helping eliminate.
We have also launched a bullying and harassment support line – https://www.rsc.org/new-perspectives/talent/bullying-and-harassment-support – to listen to those who are struggling to talk and to signpost toward resources which may help. This support line is supported by the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Chemists’ Community Fund.

How To Beat A Harassment Charge In Texas: A Former Prosecutor Explains How! (2022)
If you have been arrested, charged or are facing criminal investigation for the crime of harassment in Fort Worth or a surrounding city in Tarrant County, Texas, you should call The Hampton Law Firm now to determine what your legal rights and options are under Texas law.
Upon first glance, it may appear that the crime of harassment is not a serious concern. However, because it is an arrestable offense under Texas law, facing allegations of harassment will lead to a criminal arrest, bonding out of jail and a series of court dates to determine if you will receive a conviction that will remain permanently on your criminal record.
If you are a first-time offender, receiving a conviction for harassment can have serious and long-term consequences on your future. For instance, many employers view a harassment conviction as a sign that you are unstable and untrustworthy. In fact, having a criminal conviction on your record for anything more than a traffic violation will limit future employment opportunities. As such, it is critical that your Fort Worth criminal defense attorney has a proven track record of resolving harassment cases in a favorable manner that provides you an opportunity to have your criminal record cleared.
What Qualifies As A Harassment Charge In Texas?
Harassment charges usually arise when an alleged victim receives some form of communication from the accused (in-person, phone, email, text) that annoys or alarms them to the point of calling the police. The biggest challenge for the police will involve proving that you were the person that made the communication and that you acted with criminal intent.
For example: many times criminal intent can be inferred based upon the nature of the contact. We have seen harassment cases where the accused has made hundreds of calls repeatedly to the alleged victim over a period of a few days. The more times the accused calls someone, the easier it is for the prosecution to infer criminal intent to annoy, alarm or abuse the alleged victim. Alternatively, if a call is made by the accused threatening the alleged victim with bodily injury or against a family member, the police can take this conduct and proceed forward with a harassment charge (if the call was made to harass or annoy), or a terroristic threat charge (if it placed the alleged victim in fear of the action).
Some of the more common examples of how citizens of Fort Worth, Texas and Tarrant County, Texas receive a criminal harassment charge are as follows: communicating with someone with intent of annoying, scaring or embarrassing them, requesting or describing sex acts with intent to annoy, threatening the alleged victim or their family, making false reports of death, calling repeatedly, etc.
Under Texas Penal Code, Section 42.07, the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office must prove the following elements of harassment beyond a reasonable doubt:
A person commits an offense of harassment if, with intent to harass, annoy, alarm, abuse, torment, or embarrass another, he:
• Initiates communication by telephone, in writing, or by electronic communication and in the course of the communication makes a comment, request, suggestion, or proposal that is obscene;
• Threatens, by telephone, in writing, or by electronic communication, in a manner reasonably likely to alarm the person receiving the threat, to inflict bodily injury on the person or to commit a felony against the person, a member of his family or household, or his property;
• Conveys, in a manner reasonably likely to alarm the person receiving the report, a false report, which is known by the conveyor to be false, that another person has suffered death or serious bodily injury;
• Causes the telephone of another to ring repeatedly or makes repeated telephone communications anonymously or in a manner reasonably likely to harass, annoy, alarm, abuse, torment, embarrass, or offend another;
• Makes a telephone call and intentionally fails to hang up or disengage the connection;
• Knowingly permits a telephone under the person’s control to be used by another to commit an offense under this section; or
sends repeated electronic communications in a manner reasonably likely to harass, annoy, alarm, abuse, torment, embarrass, or offend another.

For more information, visit: https://www.lawdepot.com/?pid=pg-BFYMIBUINL-generaltextlink The process for filing a harassment complaint can vary depending on the particular situation in which you find yourself and in which the harassment occurred. To file a complaint regarding harassment in the workplace, you would typically contact a manager or human resources (HR) associate to formally file your complaint. If you were harassed at school, and you are a student, then you should contact a teacher or other person at the school such as the vice principal or principal. In any situation, however, you should file a harassment complaint officially and promptly to ensure you are protected from further harassment as soon as possible.
Sometimes employees are unsure about whether their work environment is hostile enough to be considered illegal. Not all bad behavior is legally actionable even though it may be extremely unpleasant. Attorney Ali Tozier discusses protected classes and what to consider if you feel you’re being discriminated against at work.

Harassment in Oklahoma is one of several specific statutory grounds when a court can enter a protective order. And in my experience, this is one of the most common reasons you see protective orders being sought is on allegations of harassment. This is a really common thing you see. But what does that actually mean legally speaking?
Well, we can go to Title 22, section 60.1 that gives you the legal definition for the purpose of the statute. Under this statute, it’s defined as “a knowing and willful course or pattern of conduct by a family or household member, or an individual who is or has been involved in a dating relationship with the person, directed at a specific person, which seriously harms or annoys the person and in which serves no legitimate purpose.”
It goes on to say that “the course of conduct must be such as would cause a reasonable person to suffer substantial emotional distress, and must actually cause substantial emotional distress to the person.”
Let’s unpack that real quick. Harassment has to be a knowing and willful course or pattern of conduct. So, the first thing that’s an obvious thing with harassment is for it to be harassment, it has to be more than a one-off incident.

For more information, visit: https://www.lawdepot.com/?pid=pg-BFYMIBUINL-generaltextlink Neighbor harassment is a somewhat broad category of behavior that is usually defined based on two factors: the intent of the person doing the harassing, and the effects of that behavior on others. In most places the term has both a legal definition and a more common understanding. In the law, true harassment is often very difficult to prove. It usually requires a sustained pattern of behavior or speech that is intentionally designed to harm another person or cause some sort of pronounced distress, plus some sort of actual damages that result.

From late July 2019 to September
2019, VLSB+C undertook two
surveys on sexual harassment in
Victoria’s legal profession.
One survey was designed to
gather data on the prevalence and
characteristics of sexual harassment
in Victoria’s legal workplaces;
the other was designed to gather
information from principals about
the training, policies and procedures
in place to prevent (and respond to)
sexual harassment in Victoria’s law
practices.
Many landlords have a federally backed loan and some restrictions come with those loans, especially regarding eviction.
Landlords don’t like that, and they will shut off their tenants’ utilities or call DHR on them saying they suspect child abuse. Anything to get their tenants out of their property.
However, if there’s a proper lease agreement the landlord has to follow the rules.
If a landlord decides to change the locks and throw all of your stuff out because you’re a couple months behind on rent, you need to serve that landlord with a huge lawsuit.
Too often we see landlords shut off their tenants utilities, and then come after the tenant with a debt collector for money damages.
They will sue tenants and try to get more money from them.
If your landlord is violating the law by harassing you and trying to evict you, definitely look into suing them.
You may have rights under your State Landlord/Tenant Act, the company violating the law may be considered a debt collector, and you may have some other state laws that protect you from being illegally evicted.
Get with a consumer lawyer in your state to help you with your case, and punish these landlords from breaking the law.
Thanks for watching!

Relationships between landlords and tenants can test every aspect of a person’s patience – but what happens when things really go south? If situations escalate, property owners may find themselves accused of landlord harassment. In this video we help owners discover what constitutes landlord harassment along with the possible repercussions you could face.
01:02 – What Constitutes Landlord Harassment?
01:38 – Common Examples of Landlord Harassment
04:51 – What Should You Do When Accused of Landlord Harassment?
05:13 – Tips to Avoid Landlord Harassment Claims
In general, landlord harassment is categorized as the ongoing use of aggressive tactics to intimidate a tenant. Most often, this involves disrupting the occupant’s right to quiet enjoyment. However, it could also involve using forceful measures to compel the tenant to vacate the property or not file a complaint that they have a legal right to. Landlord-tenant disputes can escalate quickly and any accusations of landlord harassment should not be taken lightly.
Common Examples of What Constitutes Landlord Harassment
Unfortunately, harassment can in some ways, be in the eye of the beholder. That said, landlords should avoid any actions that could lead to a landlord harassment claim such as –
• Verbally or Physically Threatening a Tenant
• Any form of Sexual Harassment
• Filing False Charges or a False Eviction
• Refusing to Accept Rent Payments as a Means of Intimidation
• Illegal Entry into the Rental Property
• Not Providing Proper Notice
• Unlawfully Changing the Locks
• Removing Personal Belongings from the Property
• Cutting Off Amenities as Described in the Lease Agreement
• Disrupt essential Utility Services that Effect Habitability
• Refusing to Perform Maintenance in a Timely Manner
• Creating Nuisances that Disrupt the Right to Quiet Enjoyment
Having a successful rental property business, in part, means keeping your tenants happy. That means despite any personality conflicts, landlords must still provide a safe and habitable living space. Besides, engaging in any retaliatory or harassing behavior won’t work out well for owners or tenants.
So, what is the best way to handle the landlord-tenant issues that are sure to arise? It’s simple, let someone else take care of it for you! Professional representation is an owner’s best defense against troublesome tenants while protecting against potential harassment claims.
