About Robert
I have more than 18 years experience in law enforcement. During my time in law enforcement, I saw a lot of bullying and harassment. Bullying was sometimes evident between officers and citizens although it was rare. I did witness rampant bullying within the ranks of the Force. Sometimes this bullying was related to sexual harassment towards office employees, but more prevalent was the bullying and backstabbing within the ranks. It became apparent that certain people had their minds more set on advancement through the ranks than just doing good police work in the community. I noted that these same people were often the ones to advance quickly, although their policing skills were frequently lacking. In my case, I had an unfortunate situation where I had to charge a fellow officer, who had rank, for a criminal offence. Within hours, I sensed a large target on my back. In a police office with 70 members, only 12 spoke to me for the following year. I was given a punishment transfer to my last choice of provinces as well as many other forms of punishment, too numerous to mention here. I developed a case of PTSD and eventually left a job that I loved, as a necessity for my mental health. As part of my healing process, I began to research and study the subject of harassment and how to protect oneself in the workplace as well as how managers can protect their employees from bullying.
