## Resource

This research explores the critical need for organizations to abandon outdated victim-blaming theories and instead adopt frameworks focused on perpetrator accountability and systemic reform. The research highlights how workplace mistreatment frequently targets marginalized groups as a tool to maintain power hierarchies, leading to severe consequences for employee wellbeing and organizational productivity. By examining evidence-based interventions like the CREW model, the research argues that lasting change requires transparent reporting mechanisms, leadership allyship, and data-driven infrastructure. Ultimately, the research asserts that the responsibility for misconduct lies with those who commit it and the corporate cultures that allow it to persist. Creating a psychologically safe environment depends on institutionalizing these equitable practices rather than expecting targets to modify their own behavior.
