what is disability related harassment
Jerome Holzbauer, PhD, defines disability harassment in the workplace as, âWork-related harassment on the basis of disability consisting of verbal, gesturing, or aggressive conduct that conveys denigration, hostility, or aversion toward a person because of that personâs disability.ome examples of disability harassment might include: 1  An employee with cerebral palsy being made fun of due to the way they speak; 2  An employee with an intellectual disability having lunches stolen from them; 3  Co-workers calling a person with a disability âretardâ or âcripple;â.
