Workplace Bullying - What We Know, Who Is to Blame and What Can We Do?

Informationen zum Autor Helge Hoel, Charlotte Rayner, Cary Cooper Klappentext Workplace bullying is an area that has attracted significant press attention throughout the last decade. At a conservative estimate, over half the working population can expect to experience bullying at work at some stage in their careers, either directly by being bullied or through witnessing it, and 20 percent of witnesses and 25 percent of direct targets will leave their organizations. Workplace Bullying is derived from the largest survey ever carried out on workplace bullying, supported by the CBI, TUC, Federation of Small Businesses, IPD, and the HSE among others. The book goes beyond the study to explore all the issues associated with what is becoming a major issue in organizations. Zusammenfassung A variety of well publicised surveys have revealed that bullying in the workplace is endemic within working life in Britain. this book goes beyond these studies to explore the issues associated with this major problem in organisations today.
