“This is connected to our anti-racism and anti-oppression work because “professional behavior” can actually be a manifestation of white supremacy culture. For example, “the customer is always right” prioritizes the feelings of a person in power over the harm they commit. We also wanted to recognize that each person has their own threshold for responding to negative interactions: what one person can tolerate should not be the barometer for what all people can tolerate. Additionally, individuals have varying capacities at any given moment. We wanted to develop a solution that supported staff while also acknowledging their autonomy and ability to self-regulate.”
