A team of interdisciplinary experts provides an up-to-date review
of current theories, empirical research, and management strategies
that will help organizations address workplace bullying through
both prevention and intervention. Workplace bullying is a serious
issue that can lead to anxiety, depression, substance abuse,
absenteeism, sleep disturbances, and post-traumatic stress
syndrome. This book has a simple goal: to help employers see
bullying-and stop it. It does that by providing organizations with
best practices, management strategies for bullying prevention, and
protocols for investigating bullying complaints. Part I of the book
overviews workplace bullying, discussing incidence, psychological
dimensions, and explanatory models. It looks at reasons bullies do
what they do, at the difference between a tough boss and a bully,
and at the cost of bullying for organizations. Equally important
are the book's insights into the impact of bullying on employees.
Everyday problems of employees targeted by bullies at work are
illustrated, including the resulting psychological distress that
can lead to suicide. Part II of the work focuses on prevention and
coping and on legislation that protects employees, including Title
VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Finally, to help both employers
and employees, the book offers sample anti-bully policies and bully
awareness training programs, and also lists organizations concerned
with workplace bullying. Takes a lifespan developmental approach to
understanding workplace bullying Offers specific recommendations
for preventing workplace bullying Shares and addresses real-life
stories Provides sample policies and investigation formats Features
chapters written by noted scholars, human resource professionals,
psychologists, and attorneys
