- Bullying and harassment in one form or another exists at numerous places of employment in our country
- Some people are able to accept the situation and move on anyway, but there are many who are not able to do so, and it is not their fault.
- Many are facing day-to-day oppressive atmosphere in their workplaces but do not feel empowered to do anything about it.
- For many individuals around the country personal life is being affected significantly because of a very negative work situation, causing anxiety, depression and other associated mental health disorders
- There are many who are facing one or more different forms of discrimination, but do not feel comfortable in standing up against it
- There are employees around the country who are facing undeserved consequences for doing the right thing at work, but are feeling helpless in fighting back
- Dedicated workers not willing to report unjust activities at work (whistle blowing) because of fear of negative consequences
- Many individuals are having to deal with wrongful termination
