How do I stop a rude co-worker from making rude and embarrassing remarks in a respectful way?

We must try to explain him in simple way that what he is doing is wrong and he should avoid it, if he understands its fine, else we must complain to management in order to avoid further issue.

If you allow people to abuse you physically or mentally or financially they will continue abusing you until you are destroyed.

The work relationship is built on mutual respect however, in your life you may meet some people which you are obliged to work with or for or deal with or even live with who are rude or aggressive, in this case I would recommend you to implement "Hedgehogs Strategy"

 What is hedgehog's strategy?

 It is understood that it is instinctively wither in human or animal world in case of sever could couple uses their body to maintain temperature if they don't have alternatives.

 Once upon time in very chilly night two "Hedgehogs" met at the mid of nowhere so instinctively they tried to be close to each other seeking warmness but each time they come close mutually they jab each other with their sharp spines; so they realize that to take advantage of this feature they have to come close to each other to the borderline that provide them with warmness and without prickling each other which they successfully did. So I believe this is what you need to do if you can't avoid him.

You have to show him that you can be rude too not for assault but for self-defense and minimize dealing with him to the level that achieve the common interest.

I need a respectful but firm way to speak to him and ask him to change his behavior without alienating him.

I faced this when I was A Manager, and honestly speaking I took a formal action as per company rules, Good companies should have the ((( we hire people for their qualifications, and we send them home because of their ATTITUDE)))

Tell them strictly but politely and in a formal manner that you don't appreciate their comments and would like to hear no longer of them, my advice is to keep your composure ,say what you need to say and stand up for yourself  using only few words. 

 Silence on the sod.  answer

Outline what what he/she does that you do not like,do it in a calm manner but standing your ground firmly

Thank you for your invite. In our company indiscipline or disrespect must be reported to the management. Let your manager take care of this situation. We believe to kill the evil in the bud. Employee security emotional as well as physical is our responsibility and is  of prime importance for us

Firstly Calm yourself down, take your time and try to be kind to those who are rude to you. Being kind does not mean that you tolerate one abuse after another. It means that you respond to the other person politely if still he doing the same thing than confront the person privately

Best way is ignore which is bliss, having said that you can also try to talk to him and understand what makes him do that. Accompanied by your colleagues in a group you can also address the issue. Buy him a gift and tell him you deserve it but stop making rude remarks. Vengeance is not the best solution but a kind approach can change the whole world to some.

Good day. The way you do to stop the rude co-worker depends on your attitude. 

for example, when someone is making fun on me or being rude and I am not in the mood, i just give him/her a sharp look, which will tell him/her to stop.

In other scenario you can simply ask your co-worker to have a private moment, then inform him/her that you are annoyed because of his rudeness, and ask him/her to stop embarrassing you.
