PWH Intro

Workplace harassment prevention in Mexico requires more than a policy—it requires employees to understand how harassment, discrimination, workplace violence, and psychosocial risks impact the workplace. As legal requirements continue to evolve, organizations must equip employees with the skills to recognize inappropriate behavior, speak up when concerns arise, and contribute to a culture of respect and accountability.

Emtrain's Preventing Workplace Harassment course combines legal awareness with practical workplace skills. Through realistic scenarios and guided learning, employees learn how to identify harassment, respond appropriately to workplace concerns, support coworkers, and navigate reporting processes while helping organizations support compliance with Mexico's workplace harassment and violence prevention requirements.

Q
What is NOM-035 and why does it matter?
NOM-035 is a Mexican workplace standard that requires employers to identify, assess, and help prevent psychosocial risk factors, including workplace violence, harassment, and unhealthy work environments. It is designed to promote employee wellbeing and a positive organizational culture.
Q
What should employees do if they witness harassment at work?
Employees should safely intervene when appropriate, support affected coworkers, document concerning behavior, and report incidents through established workplace channels. Taking action early can help prevent harmful situations from escalating.
Q
How can employees report harassment or discrimination concerns?
Employees should follow their organization's reporting procedures, which may include notifying a manager, Human Resources, an ethics hotline, or another designated reporting channel. Reports should be made as soon as possible so concerns can be investigated promptly.
