If you discover an influenced colleague, please remember to address the situation with care, compassion and professionalism while prioritizing the safety and well-being of all colleagues involved.
Some general guidelines:
Safety first. Ensure the safety of yourself and others around you. If the situation poses an immediate risk, move yourself or the other person to a safe location.
Be professional and avoid making assumptions or accusations. Focus on observed behavior rather than personal judgments.
Approach the colleague in a private and discreet manner to address the situation. Avoid discussing the matter with other colleagues to maintain confidentiality and prevent gossip.
Express concern for the colleague's wellbeing and offer assistance. This could be to order a taxi back home or to encourage them to seek help if needed.
Report the incident as soon as possible to your leader and the People Team. Provide factual information about the observed behavior.
