These excerpts from @kimballscott's @JustWorkBook explain why #paytransparency is not just a “nice to have,” but rather why it’s a critical component that absolutely must be in place for people to be able to do their best work.

Being aware of the pros and cons of leaving your role allows you to make more strategic decisions in your plan to address or report workplace harm. #JustWork

It’s perfectly normal to fear termination when deciding to speak about your harmful workplace experiences. To help alleviate the stress of potentially losing your job, take some time to assess what your options are through job searches and peer conversations.

It's normal to feel alone after experiencing or observing injustice at work but you're usually not! Ask questions and build your support system so you feel equipped to take whatever next step feels right for you.

Dealing with bias, prejudice and bullying can feel isolating so it’s helpful to reach out to friends and colleagues that can understand what you’re going through. Building solidarity with others can help you make tactical decisions in addressing your situation. #JustWork

If you're considering reporting unjust workplace behavior, keep track of those incidences to prepare for whatever level of reporting you decide to do. Those documents can also help upstanders and supporters watch out for repeat behavior on your behalf.

Documenting evidence of harmful behavior provides proof and a piece of mind before starting the reporting process. #JustWork

Consider using these preliminary steps when addressing harm in the workplace. That way you can feel informed and prepared for whatever happens.

When you’re ready to confront injustice at work, it can be difficult to know where to start. These steps from the #JustWorkBook give the person harmed and upstanders a foundation to support any course of action.
Next week, we'll expand on the importance of each step!

Upstanders take on the responsibility of gathering resources and people power. This is really valuable because it gives the person harmed space to be supported and validated.
There’s an array of emotions and logistics that come with confronting injustice in the workplace, especially for the person harmed. A community of supportive upstanders can help alleviate some of that tension, and even provide tactical help in approaching the situation. #JustWork

Experiencing bias, prejudice and bullying in the workplace can feel isolating so I encourage you to build solidarity with your colleagues. You’re likely to find that you’re not alone in your experiences and observations.

Don’t let the fear of being ‘unlikeable’ steer you from being an upstander. Instead, embrace the benefits of being known as a colleague who stays true to their beliefs and is committed to building a just working environment.

Think about what YOU want your professional reputation to be. Do you want to make an impression as someone who doesn’t allow bias, prejudice and bullying to prevail in the workplace or as someone who conforms to it? #JustWork

It's reasonable to worry about your professional reputation when you're challenging harmful behavior in the workplace. Most likely, though, you will establish yourself as an advocate and upstander, some of the most vital qualities of a good colleague.

Calling out harmful behavior can be terrifying, especially in the workplace. But to build a #JustWork environment, we must be willing to take on that task and advocate for those who have been most negatively impacted.
It's reasonable to fear escalation from challenging injustice in the workplace, especially if you've had experience with a bully before. The outcome, though, can be much more positive than not addressing the harm and allowing it to continue. #JustWork

Approaching a bully about their behavior in the workplace can be intimidating and rightfuly so. But taking that initiative can make a big difference and help create an environment where everyone can #JustWork. xitter.cf/JustWorkBook/status/15…

In this part of the #JustWorkBook, I talk about a former male colleague whose use of inappropriate language toward women quite literally brought me to rage. Holding in my irritation for his actions did no one any good and only intensified my anger.

If you truly want to maintain a healthy working relationship with your peers, don’t ignore harmful behavior, especially if it’s recurring. This will most likely cause even more harm and hostility in the workplace. #JustWork

Holding in anger and frustration for a person's inappropriate behavior in an effort to remain amiable can ultimately hurt the working relationship of your entire team.

Here’s the thing: bias, prejudice and bullying ARE a big deal because of how commonly those behaviors occur and cause harm. Minimizing individual acts undermines the fact that those experiences add up. xitter.cf/JustWorkBook/status/15…
Don’t minimize unjust behavior in the workplace. The cumulative effect of not disrupting bias, prejudice and bullying can cause even more harm than one singular act. #JustWork
