What is Workplace Bullying?
Workplace bullying involves repeated and unreasonable behaviour that intimidates, offends, degrades, or humiliates an individual. It can take many forms, including:
- Verbal Abuse: Insults, belittling comments, or shouting.
- Physical Intimidation: Threats or aggressive behaviour.
- Social Exclusion: Being deliberately left out of workplace activities or communications.
- Undermining Work Performance: Setting unrealistic deadlines, overloading with tasks, or withholding key information.
Common Bullying Concerns We Solve.
What should I do if I’m being bullied?
We’ll guide you through raising a formal grievance with your employer and exploring further options if the issue is not resolved.
Can I bring a legal claim for bullying?
While bullying alone may not constitute a legal claim, if it overlaps with harassment or discrimination, you may have grounds for legal action. We can help you identify your options.
