Workplace Bullying

Service Description

According to HeadsUp.org, a website that provides workplace resources for employees, employers, managers and small business owners, the definition of workplace bullying is "repeated and unreasonable behavior directed toward an employee or group of employees that creates a risk to health and safety." This type of harmful behavior in the workplace many times goes unreported, mainly because of its shameful, intimidating effect on the victimized employee. So many of these horrible incidents don't come to light because the employee who is being bullied is working a lower-level position, and are probably being bullied by someone that does the hiring and firing at that company. But, it's not always a boss or manager who is doing the bullying, and it can very well be a co-worker on the same level and/or pay grade as the person who's feeling victimized.
