Ministry of Justice: Crimes against the Person

There is zero tolerance for bullying across the civil service. The MoJ also has policies in place to support staff facing any form of bullying, harassment or victimisation while at work.

The table below shows the number of grievances raised by MoJ staff where the grievance reason includes "Bullying" or "Harassment - sex", and the outcome is either "Upheld" or "Partially Upheld", and the member of staff’s office location is either 102 Petty France or Clive House, by year.

Notes and caveats:

• Please note: grievance data only accounts for staff grievances raised about other members of staff. Any complaints against Ministers or Special Advisers are registered in a separate system run by the Cabinet Office.
• Data suppression is applied where the number of cases is less than 5.
• Grievances can be raised for multiple reasons; cases are selected where the relevant reason is cited.
• Year is based on year the grievance was opened on the case management system.
• Grievances are included where the outcome was "Upheld" or "Partially Upheld".
• If an appeal on the original case outcome has been made, the appeal outcome is used rather than the original case outcome.
• In a small number of cases multiple outcomes are recorded, these have been included if "Upheld" or "Partially Upheld" is one of the outcomes.
• Data covers employees in Ministry of Justice Head Quarters, His Majesty’s Courts and Tribunal Service, His Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service, Legal Aid Agency, Office of the Public Guardian and Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority.
• Cases are selected if the member of staff’s HR database Employee Location field is either 102 Petty France or Clive House.
