XVI. PREVENCIÓN DEL ACOSO LABORAL ENTRE MUJERES PERTENECIENTES AL ÁREA ADMINISTRATIVA

Abstract

In the last decades in Colombia, the concern has increased related to the dynamics
within organizations, especially about well-being and the organizational environment,
understanding that these factors don’t only affect the productivity and competitiveness of an
organization, but the lives of the people who work there and their families as well.
In addition, there’s been incidence on indicators associated to workplace’s difficulties
like harassment and the promulgation of Law 1010 of 2006, which define a route of
delimitation, correction and sanction of this phenomenon at the country level, demanding
strategies of prevention. Therefore, workplace harrasement is considered a relevant issue for
research and organizational dynamics.
The main objective of this study is to design a workplace harassment prevention
program for women who’re currently working into an administrative area. For this purpose,
surveys and focus group are applied as information collection instruments, which allow us to
understand the relational perspective of this type of workplace harassment, using tools such
as gossiping, rumors and other aggressions.
The program is designed based on the collected information, which is subsequently
validated by experts using the Delphi method. As a result, a didactic tool is created with
academic purposes.
