Employment & Labor Law
Moral harassment at work refers, in the Luxembourg context presented by the ITM, to repeated or systematic conduct undermining the dignity or psychological or physical integrity. Qualification requires examining the facts and their context; a professional disagreement does not automatically receive this qualification.
Record dated events, present persons, and available writings. Distinguish what you directly observed from what was reported to you. The informed employer must act and examine the situation. Protection measures and investigation should not become reprisals against the person reporting the facts.
A useful file describes behaviors rather than accumulating qualifiers. Messages, testimonies, and dated events allow examining repetition and context. The report should lead to an appropriate reaction from the employer, with a prompt and impartial examination of the situation.
