‘Say No To Bullying, Say No To Harassment ‘ film produced by Videotel

A training film produced to combat bullying and harassment in the shipping industry, which was made in response to Nautilus research, has picked up an award in an international competition festival honouring the best work in commercials, DVD, in-house videos and web-links.

The 20-minute film – Say No To Bullying, Say No To Harassment (Edition 2) – was produced by Videotel for a European Union project to update guidelines and an associated training package originally produced in 2004 in response to the results of a Union report on the experiences of women members, published in 2000.

Nautilus participated in the project steering group and contributed to the script and direction of the Videotel film, which won the silver award in the safety and security category of the 23rd annual Questar Awards for excellence in video communications.

‘This is great news and a well-deserved award for those of us who have worked on this project,’ Nautilus general secretary Mark Dickinson commented. ‘The award will assist greatly in the dissemination of the training package which includes this film, joint industry guidelines and a workbook for trainers.’
