What is antisocial behaviour?

There are three main categories for antisocial behaviour, depending on how many people are affected:

  • Personal antisocial behaviour is when a person targets a specific individual or group.
  • Nuisance antisocial behaviour is when a person causes trouble, annoyance or suffering to a community.
  • Environmental antisocial behaviour is when a person’s actions affect the wider environment, such as public spaces or buildings.

Anti-social behavior (ASB) is any conduct that causes or is likely to cause harassment, alarm, or distress to others.

Examples of ASB include:

  • Violence
  • Verbal abuse
  • Harassment
  • Hate crime
  • Domestic abuse
  • Use and trade of illegal drugs
  • Noise nuisance
  • Nuisance from vehicles
  • Damage to property

If a customer mentions any of these issues, it may be considered anti-social behavior.
