Customer Abuse Policy

Definition of abusive behaviour:

Abusive behaviour refers to any behaviour that is harmful, threatening, or offensive to another person or group. Some examples of abusive behaviour include:

  • Physical violence: Physical aggression or force used against another person, such as hitting, pushing, or using weapons to cause harm.
  • Verbal harassment: Any kind of verbal abuse, such as name-calling, insulting, or making threats.
  • Threats: Expressions of intent to cause harm or negative consequences, such as threatening to harm someone physically or damage their property.
  • Discrimination: Treating someone unfairly based on their race, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, or other characteristic.
  • Disrespectful conduct: Any behaviour that lacks respect, such as mocking, belittling, or ignoring someone's boundaries.

Consequences of abuse:

It's important to note that abuse should not be tolerated in any form, and both employees and customers have the right to a safe and respectful environment.

From an employee to a customer:

  • Legal consequences: If the abuse is severe enough, the employee could face criminal charges, such as assault or harassment.
  • Reputational damage: The abuse may lead to negative publicity for the company, potentially causing a loss of customers and a decline in the company's reputation.
  • Disciplinary action: The company may take disciplinary action against the employee, such as termination, suspension, or training.

From a customer to an employee:

  • Psychological harm: The employee may suffer from anxiety, stress, or trauma as a result of the abuse.
  • Decreased job satisfaction: The abuse may make the employee feel devalued or unsupported in their work, leading to decreased job satisfaction.
  • Loss of productivity: The employee may be unable to perform their job effectively as a result of the abuse, leading to decreased productivity.
  • Legal consequences: If the abuse is severe enough, the customer could face criminal charges, such as assault or harassment.

Here we practice zero tolerance policy towards any form of violence either towards our customers or our employees. Appropriate actions will be taken on the abuser.

Confidentiality:

Explain the importance of maintaining confidentiality in reporting and investigating abusive behaviour. Maintaining confidentiality in reporting and investigating abusive behaviour is essential for several reasons:

  • Protecting the victim: Maintaining confidentiality helps to protect the victim from further harm or retaliation. Victims may feel more comfortable reporting abuse if they know that their identity will be kept confidential.
  • Ensuring impartial investigations: Keeping the identities of those involved confidential helps to ensure that investigations are impartial and that the evidence is not influenced by outside factors.
  • Preserving the integrity of the process: Confidentiality helps to preserve the integrity of the investigation process by minimizing the risk of outside interference or pressure.
  • Encouraging reporting: Maintaining confidentiality can encourage individuals to report abuse, as they are more likely to come forward if they know their identity will be kept confidential.
  • Complying with legal requirements: In some cases, confidentiality is required by law. For example, privacy laws may prohibit the disclosure of personal information without the individual's consent. It's important to note that while maintaining confidentiality is important, it is also important to balance this with the need to take appropriate action to address the abusive behaviour. The company should have policies in place to ensure that confidentiality is maintained while also ensuring that appropriate action is taken to address the abuse.
  • In conclusion, maintaining confidentiality in reporting and investigating abusive behaviour helps to protect the victim, ensure impartial investigations, preserve the integrity of the process, encourage reporting, and comply with legal requirements.
