Bullying
at Work
Does your boss constantly criticise
you? Find fault and nit pick? Undermine you in front of others?
Taunt and tease to embarrass and humiliate you? Are you victim to
a
workplace bully?
The word bully may make you
think back to your schooldays; maybe bad playground memories! But
bullying happens to grown ups too –
it happens in the work place; it goes on behind closed doors with
no witnesses; it’s estimated that it’s costing industry
and tax payers billions of pounds a year – but the personal
cost is incalculable. In response to a listener’s letter On
Your Behalf asks what can you do if, you’re being bullied?
What can you do if the bully is your boss?
And how you can tell the difference between bullying and a boss/employee
relationship?
