Partnership with End Workplace Abuse
End Workplace Abuse is an organization committed to eliminating abusive behaviors, such as bullying and mobbing, from American workplaces.

The Workplace Psychological Safety Act
This act aims to protect employees from psychological abuse in the workplace. It emphasizes the necessity for employers to implement anti-bullying policies, conduct regular workplace climate surveys, investigate reports of abuse, and enforce policies through appropriate measures, including coaching, counseling, or discipline.
Taking the Pledge
Individuals and organizations are encouraged to join this movement by taking the Workplace Psychological Safety Pledge. By doing so, they commit to creating an anti-bullying policy and training all company workers on it, conducting an annual company-wide workplace climate survey, and investigating reports of workplace abuse.
By taking this pledge, organizations demonstrate a commitment to fostering psychologically safe workplaces, thereby attracting top talent, boosting productivity, and contributing positively to the economy.
The partnership between The Equity Equation and End Workplace Abuse marks a significant step toward promoting psychological safety in workplaces.
