AELC Masterclass Workshops

Workplace Bullying

Workplace bullying is defined as the tendency of individuals or groups to use aggressive or unreasonable behavior to achieve their ends. Unlike the more physical form of schoolyard bullying, workplace bullies often operate within the established rules and policies of their organization and their society.

In this workshop, you will learn:

  • What constitutes bullying
  • How to recognize bullies and bullying
  • The physical and psychological effects of bullying
  • Strategies to deal with workplace bullying
  • The responsibilities of employees and employers in situations of workplace bullying

Workplace bullying has serious economic effects on Australian organizations. A recent impact and cost assessment calculated that workplace bullying costs Australian employers between 6 and 36 billion dollars every year when hidden and lost opportunity costs are considered.

The effects on a workplace can include decreased productivity, increased staff absenteeism, staff turnover and poor morale. Financial costs can include legal and workers' compensation and management time in addressing cases of workplace bullying.
