  • sexual harassment in the medical profession legal and ethical responsibilities
    The Medical Journal of Australia, 2015
    Co-Authors: Ben Mathews, Marie M Bismark
    Abstract:

    Sexual harassment of women in medicine has become a subject of national debate after a senior female surgeon stated that if a woman complained of unwanted advances her career would be jeopardised, and subsequent reports suggest that sexual harassment is a serious problem in the medical profession. Sexual harassment of women in the medical profession by their colleagues presents substantial legal, ethical and cultural questions for the profession. Women have enforceable legal rights to gender equality and freedom from sexual harassment in the workplace. Both individual offenders and employers face significant legal consequences for sexual harassment in every Australian state and territory, and individual medical practitioners and employers need to understand their legal and ethical rights and responsibilities in this context. An individual offender may be personally liable for criminal offences, and for breaching anti-discrimination legislation, duties owed in civil law, Professional standards and codes of conduct. An employer may be liable for breaching anti-discrimination legislation, workplace safety laws, duties owed in contract law, and a duty of care owed to the employee. Employers, Professional colleges and associations, and regulators should use this national debate as an opportunity to improve gender equality and Professional Culture in medicine; individuals and employers have clear legal and ethical obligations to minimise sexual harassment to the greatest extent possible.

  • sexual harassment in the medical profession legal and ethical responsibilities
    Faculty of Law; Australian Centre for Health Law Research, 2015
    Co-Authors: Ben Mathews, Marie M Bismark
    Abstract:

    Free to read Sexual harassment of women in medicine in the Australian medical profession is a serious problem which presents substantial legal, ethical and cultural questions for the medical profession. Women have enforceable legal rights to gender equality and freedom from sexual harassment in the workplace. Both individual offenders and their employers face significant legal consequences for sexual harassment. Individual medical practitioners and employers need to understand their legal and ethical responsibilities in this context. This article analyses four areas of legal liability in every State and Territory which apply to individual offenders and employers: criminal law, discrimination law, civil law, and contract law. It also analyses ethical duties owed by doctors towards their colleagues under Professional regulatory schemes. The analysis shows that individual doctors and their employers have clear legal and ethical obligations to prevent sexual harassment. On legal and ethical grounds, medical employers, Professional colleges and associations, and regulators need to improve gender equality and Professional Culture in medicine. A five-step model for cultural change is proposed.

  • comprehension of the english national character in building Professional linguistic Culture
    Journal of Educational and Social Research, 2019
    Co-Authors: Diana Sabirova, Elena Solovyova, Nadezhda Pomortseva, Svetlana Petrovna Antonova
    Abstract:

    The article discusses the integrative competence-based cultural approach to studying the complex and multifaceted world of the Culture of the target language through comprehension of the English national character reflected in arts as a way to personal development, interdisciplinary Professional mobility and Professional Culture of the student majoring in Linguistics. The English national character is revealed through its artistic understanding in such most ‘English’ genres as portrait, landscape and caricature, as well as in the perpendicular architectural style and features of landscape architecture. The authors have designated the content-semantic blocks of Linguistics and Culture Study courses to demonstrate the students who specialize in translation and interpretation the traditions reflected in the national character through the prism of art, thus revealing the semantics of the concept of the national character. The image of the English national character as constructed by English art is analyzed. Its main features are revealed: conservatism, patriotism, snobbery, respect of law and privacy, tolerance, politeness, practicality and rationality, conventionalism, eccentricity and sense of humor, contradiction and sometimes paradox. Interactive technologies that ensure the assimilation of educational material aimed at promoting national, ethnic and religious tolerance, respect of the values of a different Culture, focus on cross-cultural communication, inculturation and socialization of the individual are presented in the article.
