Darren Heitner writes: The attention paid to Nike's workplace environment has not gone away since May 7, when I wrote about four lessons on how to handle complaints about toxic culture based on actions by Nike CEO Mark Parker. Since then, five additional executives have left the company, bringing the number of exits since claims of sexual harassment arose to a total of 12 people.
There is no questioning the power of the #MeToo Movement, which has required all brands to look within their corporate culture and change as necessary to be in front of sexual discrimination issues.

Employee assistance programs are some of the most prevalent benefits offered by employers.
EAPs are also among the most underutilized. Proof: More than 90 percent of employers offered an EAP in 2016, but nearly half of those companies reported an EAP utilization rate of 6 percent or less.
Just 28 percent said they had a utilization rate of 7 percent or higher. And an alarming 23 percent didn’t even know what their EAP utilization rate was. These finding come from a recent study on mental health benefits by the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans.

Targeted aggression in the workplace can negatively impact the victim’s health and also cause the victim to continue the cycle of cruelty by behaving badly towards others, according to a new study on nurses led by researchers at the University of East Anglia.

According to Bo Mitchell, there are more than 1,300 deaths per year as a result of “intimate partner violence” and many of them occur in a workplace environment. Two people are killed each day in America in the workplace as a result of a firearm or knife attack.
