Frequently Asked Questions

What is workplace gossip, and why is it harmful?

Gossip has often been perceived to be just harmless banter, but in actual fact it can be harmful to individuals and organisations. For individuals, it can cause. a lack of self-confidence,  a lack of self-worth, feelings of worthlessness, a lack of trust towards others, increased absenteeism, and quitting, which can all lead to depression and other mental health concerns. For organisations, it can lead to teams that don’t trust each other, teams that are in constant conflict, and a lack of productivity, autonomy, and innovation. It can also lead to a high staff turnover, a high absenteeism rate, and an increase in paying relief staff. There are also other financial burdens like an increase in recruitment and training fees and the possibility of legal fees and charges when claims of bullying, harassment or defamation are made.
