Stand Up to Bullying

Stand Up to Bullying has expanded beyond anti-bullying education to include comprehensive workplace safety consulting services. Our unique background in conflict resolution and creating safe environments gives us a different perspective on workplace safety culture. We help businesses develop safety programs that emphasize communication, reporting, and proactive hazard identification. Our approach recognizes that the best safety programs involve everyone in the organization, from executive leadership to front-line workers. We've worked with schools, healthcare facilities, and businesses throughout southern Vermont to create safer environments through education, clear policies, and effective communication systems. Our experience in addressing sensitive workplace issues translates well to building trust around safety reporting and incident prevention.

Our workplace safety consulting services focus heavily on creating positive safety cultures alongside OSHA compliance. We conduct thorough safety audits that examine not just physical hazards but also communication patterns and reporting systems that can prevent incidents. Our assessments include anonymous employee surveys to identify unreported hazards and safety concerns. We specialize in developing safety training programs that engage employees rather than just checking compliance boxes. Our training emphasizes personal responsibility, peer accountability, and clear communication about safety concerns. We also provide comprehensive hazard assessments with particular expertise in workplace violence prevention and creating safe reporting systems. Fire safety services include evacuation planning with special attention to employees with disabilities and visitors unfamiliar with your facility layout.

We begin with confidential interviews with management and key employees to understand your workplace culture and any underlying safety concerns. This helps us identify issues that might not be apparent during a standard facility inspection. Our comprehensive assessment includes both physical hazard identification and evaluation of your safety communication systems. We conduct anonymous employee surveys to gather honest feedback about safety concerns and reporting barriers. Our final recommendations address both immediate compliance issues and long-term culture improvements. Implementation support includes helping establish safety committees, developing clear reporting procedures, and training supervisors on effective safety leadership.

We serve businesses throughout southern Vermont including Bennington, Rutland, and Windsor counties. Our primary service area centers on Manchester but extends to Rutland, Brattleboro, and surrounding communities. We also provide specialized workplace violence prevention services throughout Vermont and eastern New York on a project basis.
