Harassment harms psychological health, causing anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, and decreased self-esteem. It can also impair concentration and job satisfaction, affecting performance.
Physical health and safety may suffer, including headaches, fatigue, and stress-related illnesses. Prolonged exposure can reduce engagement and increase absenteeism.
