Bullying should be illegal, especially if you are doing your work to a specified standard, keeping to yourself and delivering on time.

Workers that are treated bad deserve all the money they win, because workers suffer everyday of their life like a prison when they are treated bad. They are millionaires and we keep them rich.

Sadly, employment rights are low in the USA (despite all the race/gender categorizations meaning it's ok to treat people like dirt if that's not a factor) so yeah, valuable employees are treated badly if they're not favorites because they didn't kiss the boss's tukas at the right time or they look like the kid that the boss picked on in high school. In my own case, the employer just decided to kick me out the door and live with the ramifications such as telling the other loser workers to handle the fallout or the customers could just deal with it. Managers put their own egos and interests ahead of the customer, the employee, or even the shareholders. That's why all this "work is like baseball! We're a team!" is such nonsense. They'll trash the whole system for their interests. There's no I in team, but there is a "me."

Smart employees can be harrassed because they bring to light potential problems in the company. Not necessarily a non - valuable employee.

Exactly. It really comes down who the management along the line see as valuable - in my experience it's the people who signal that they value personal loyalty over professional integrity. That's how a manager who has an internal history of harrassing people has become sub-div manager and something called an "ethical principle". In the meantime I've seen too many good professional employees leaving - not always due to harrassment, but for being neglected when it comes to promotions and bonuses, as their values did not reflect personal benefits for upper managers. So, yes, good employees complain too, but they usually just leave knowing that HR is just there to execute later retaliation, if they dare to say truth during the exit interview.

I kind of agree with preferring remote over in-person work, however I have recently found that bullying and harassment can still occur while working remotely. In fact, it’s probably more covert in remote settings because it’s hard to prove and provide witnesses of alleged harassment. Especially if your company doesn’t record Zoom/virtual meetings, at that point everything is hearsay and the harasser can easily get away with passive-aggressive behavior.

I think remote is even worse cuz I work for remote for a telemarketing company and my supervisor does not like me and she tries to make my night a living hell I can hear our nasty comments about me on the other side of the line when she tells me to take my lunch break or whatever and just being extremely aggressive in my calls all the time monitoring my calls obsessively and if Ike I've been doing this for over 15 years and I'm older than her and she treats me like I don't know what I'm doing and she constantly makes everyday working for their company a nightmare she tries to make it a nightmare but I'm very good at ignoring her and making her feel like she's burning in hell in our own head she talks and had conversations with other supervisors about me laughs at me and talks about how I job situations on the phone but yet you always trying to ask me to do extra hours for their company overtime and I won't do it because of how I'm treated I'm not going to kiss anybody's ass and let you overwork me just to fill your pockets with more cash you're not going to take advantage of me and she hates me because I will never do overtime I would never do anything of the sort unless it's really busy and sometimes I might stay over like 45 minutes but that's it and the only reason I did that is because there's a mandatory 45-minute stay after that I'm ready to go and this witch act like I don't even deserve to have days off and every time I work as soon as she's always there I don't know if she has any days off she never takes any vacations she's always in that office and it's it's like does she have a life I mean I take vacation so I can tell she doesn't like when I take a vacation she complains to other people in the office that I'm taking a vacation he complains that if I sound tired on the phone it is constantly she is in my ear just mumbling nonsense watches monitoring my calls and she's trying to make it seem like I don't know what I'm doing but the only reason why she's doing it's because she's trying to make more money off of me I know exactly what she's doing and I don't give a shit I'm not going to your bank I'm not going to supervisors can be the worst they actually think they're Gods and their positions and they lose all Humanity they just become greedy an egotistical it's all ego is all power and I really don't want to have anything to do with it I mean I enjoy working at my company and I don't plan on quitting but I can tell that so she's trying to make me do she can keep on doing whatever it takes talking about me and knocking me off the system sometimes and then when I call in and say I was knocked off the system I don't I don't understand and pretending that she has no idea what happened completely clueless and then when I signed back on she has her phone her on monitoring device but she thinks I can't hear her but I can hear everything she saying there's just no way of me proving what she saying there's no recording of it cuz you can't record on the phone remote you can't record from a remote headset call center phone you can't so the only person that's hearing this nonsense it's me and my ear and a few supervisors that are in her office laughing horse care of her and they wont do anything to stop this from happening there under there like she took her status is above them I think they're lower-status supervisors and she might be like a shift supervisor so they say things like leave her alone you know she's not doing anything wrong but you keep bothering her and she just doesn't like me other supervisors other shift supervisors management loves me at the company but she doesn't like me my supervisor my shift supervisor my other supervisors that work underneath her don't give a shit left and right as long as I'm doing my job that's okay but this shift supervisor has it out for me is like is I don't know if it's jealousy because of what people are saying about me in the office how good I am maybe I'm more attractive than shares who knows I have no idea who she is because I work remote and the business is in California and I'm in Florida I just don't really know what to do with the situation if I should complain to management about the shift supervisor if I do something like that she will probably try to make my life a living hell my shift supervisor will probably try to make my life a living hell that she's pushing and pushing the Dora pushing the limit trying to see what she can make me do all I do is I stay quiet I don't say anything to her I just feel like nothing ever happened but I would like to talk to my manager the one that hired me cuz my shift supervisor did not hire me she works under my management if I go to my management and say I'm being bullied and harassed every day when I work remote that she's talking about me and laughing about me and calling me names and just charging me every day trying to make me stay later than I should being jealous of me having my days off and when I take vacations her attitude completely aggressive when I come back from a vacation I don't understand why this which doesn't take a vacation or her own my life has nothing to do with her life I'm here to do my shift and that's it I'm not there to impress anyone I'm just there to do good and make my money but I'm not there to like be a rising star and I think she doesn't like that about me meanwhile I haven't called out sick in over 4 years my schedule is perfect but that's nothing I can do she I'm not going to try to please her because I'm not that type of person if you don't like me you don't like me I'm just here to do my job I don't even know her because she lives in California and I live in Florida the job is in California so their laws are different than ours in Florida and 100s finding a job in Florida working remote is amazing cuz I don't have to spend money on gas I don't have to buy an outfit to wear to work everyday I don't have to waste makeup I don't have to buy a new shoes all the time I don't have to sit there and socialize or people I don't want to talk to you know I have a bathroom not too far away I don't have to walk around the company to go to the company bathroom at have to do any of that why do love working remote but this which is a monster and I'm really sick of her she just is really immature and I am really really close to complaining to management but I know management I feel that they will take her side because they all work together in California in the office and I'm just an agent I'm expendable I'm a remote agent and if I say something that I feel like she's bullying me everyday and I can just see management having a meeting with her and just laughing it off and saying something simple only / loan you know she thinks that you're bullying her that's all they'll probably do and tell a joke in the office and then the harassing will continue it'll just be even worse and I'm not going to quit my job they're going to have to fire me because I've been there way too long to lose what I have coming to me

Helpful video. Thank you. I recently resigned from a decent job with benefits due to bullying and protected class harassment. I reported the first incident to HR. They did nothing about it.

I’m currently suing the company I worked for for harassment and retaliation, I’ve committed a mistake when I complained to HR, I showed them what evidence and names of witnesses in my complaint, but my lawyer said we can work that out.

Bullying is illegal in many different ways

People really underestimate their own evidence. When you write a statement that’s your evidence. It’s difficult to write your statement because you have to live through the harassment again .

••Targeted Individual (Ti) ~ A person who becomes a target for various forms of harassment. ••Harassment ~ Any repeated or continuing uninvited contact that serves no useful purpose beyond creating alarm, annoyance, or emotional distress. ••Stalking ~ Criminal activity consisting of the repeated following and/or harassing of another person. It is a distinctive form of activity composed of a series of actions that taken individually are not illegal. But, when these actions are coupled with an intent to instill stress, fear, or injury then they may constitute a pattern of behavior that is absolutely criminal. ••Gangstalking ~ Stalking that is organized and carried out by two or more people. An extreme form of harassment, gangstalking consists of psychological torment which can negatively affect or even destroy every aspect of a targeted individual's life. ••Gaslighting ~ A form of deception where information is altered or selectively omitted to favor the manipulator, with the intent of making victims doubt their own memory, perception and sanity. Actions may range from denial that previous deception ever occurred, up to the staging of bizarre events by the abusers with the intention of disorienting the victims. This psychology term is derived from Patrick Hamilton's 1938 play Gaslight, about a woman whose husband slowly manipulates her into believing that she is going insane. ••Micro expression ~ The sudden flash on a person's face that reveals their true emotion, instead of the one they're using to cover with. ••Vilifying the victim ~ A psychological tactic that puts a victim on the defensive while simultaneously masking the intent of the manipulator. When malicious actions are directed towards a targeted individual (Ti), the manipulator falsely accuses the victim as being the abuser in response when they stand up for or defend themselves. ••Reciprocal liking retraction ~ A psychological bullying tactic used to emotionally torment a targeted individual. How this works is a person or group will initially act friendly towards a person, creating a bond. Then, when an undetermined amount of time has passed, the abusers will ignore, mock, and ridicule their target causing anything from annoyance or frustration to emotional trauma or suicide. ••Duping delight ~ The expression on a person's face showing the enjoyment felt from mocking or deceiving another person. ••Learned helplessness ~ A mental state of powerlessness that overwhelms a person who endures reoccurring stressful situations that are not responded to correctly, making you believe that you are unable to control or change things.

These are great tips. Basically, you like your job and want to keep it. You derive personal satisfaction from a job well done and getting that nice paycheck at the end of the week. You want to be able to leave your job at the door, have fun with your family and come back the next ready for more. But harassment takes away from all that. Do whatever you can with your words, deeds and demeanor to remediate the situation. Unfortunately, there are some dysfunctional people who make it into management. But if you remain steadfast, you hopefully can navigate through this situation. It’s actually kind of a spiritual test.

I decided to go to HR just to let them know of this incident . Since that day my work life has been horrible, uncomfortable and two days after I got written up for stupid stuff. I disagreed with the letter and didn't sign, two weeks later another write up- this just made me laugh because all this stuff could of been eliminated if the so called supervisor did her job initially . The accounting manager and supervisor be snickering, whispering until I basically told them I am keeping track of what is going in and out of my inbox on a daily basis.. since then all of a sudden they change my work flow and give me the procedures to do a particular work duties which was suppose to be done months prior. I have witnesses I stay to myself , work and do what I am asked but to this day its still happening that I am getting headaches, not wanting to come to work anymore.

Is pay harassment considered something?

People destroy harassing documents because it hurts to be harassed. And those texts and documents are making words and hurtful comments come alive. If they are burned or deleted, it is like burning, destroying, deleting what was said. Often when this starts to happen, person on the receiving end just wants it to stop and hopes it will stop and if they pretend that it is not happening that somehow it will go away. People on the harassing end don't have a long end game in mind such as to complain to employer nevermind to plan to go to court and sue for harassment so they don't start collecting "evidence" from the get go. Hope this clarifies their end of things a bit.

SHOULD I MESSAGE CORPORATE MYSELF?

ive been at this job for about maybe 5-6months im a supervisor breakfast attendant i was kind of talked into it being brought in saying its super easy etc. Well from the getco i only speak english and 95% of the co workers only speak a different language so i was really an outcast from the beginning id say hi and thats as far as it would go and then i eventually had problems with my co worker doing less and less of his work so i finally ended up saying something and thats when the intimidation tatics started. Just little things here and there but noticeably enough... basically everyone is friends and family here so if one has a problem with you then all of them do. The biggest issue would be them using dish ware and sneaking it back in after i left before coming back for my split shift to find there dirty dishes in the sink for me to take care of. At one point i had opened bags of chicken i was going to make and they brought a nastt dirty dish with grease all over it and stuck in the water where the chicken was thawing getting nasty dirty grease stuff all over the chicken. Other things would be he would show up super late and not let me know and put me behind etc. The more i said things the more these little things would happen and management wouldn't do anything about it. One manager in paticular favors them as well and didnt like me from the beginning she would start her day by coming in and finding things she could come and say something about. Well today i ended up getting in a fight with her about the order that she placed lazy like (didn't check anything just ordered) and she always has an attitude and i ask her why and all she can say is she reflects back what i give her. Mind you i don't talk to her because shes always super sarcastic so i just avoid it and apparently thats me just coming off as an ugly demeanor and unpleasant to be around. She told me that none of the staff (that are in thr big circle together) are comfortable with me because i come off aggressive. All in a tatic to bully me out and want to quit...

What can we do when your boss is the one doing the bullying?

After 30 yrs in a company I got my first warning because I said ''You look OK today'' as I feel and believe what I said there's nothing wrong from the bible of harassment.

Don't make compliments or non-compliments to people. This includes saying "you look OK today"

I got verbally and sexualy harassed but they tried to defend it because the guy was Mexican and that was their culture? Meanwhile, I seem to be berated at every corner, mostly because I brought in potatoes and was blamed by a random person for breaking a microwave that I didn't touch, and was just told that it was "workplace joking" or "joking in the workplace" Meanwhile, I signed up for insurance and HR isn't responding at all to my calls, and I've been depressed and deprived of my meds I need to take. I also haven't gotten he clothes I ordered and now I have a permanent set of dirty clothes I have to deal with. There's a definitely written up report of the verbal abuse I've received, and it's on record and I can show that I don't have insurance, but I can't prove without a shadow of a doubt the other claims. I'm very upset and traumatized right now, it's affecting my work and I have been leaning more and more to suicidal thoughts and idk where to turn to. I just want insurance and to be reimbursed for what's happened to me. It's a very chill work environment otherwise.

Fantastic day for everyone !

I’m constantly harassed at my job and even though I do most of the work my two bosses tell everyone I’m lazy to the point I’ve had people apologize to me for believing it when they seen what was going on. I talked to my main boss about the harassment and they basically told me I’m a liar, I’m lazy, my managers friend is essentially my new boss even though we have the same position, and if my managers friend isn’t doing his job I need to step up and cover for him because he’s probably doing something important.. if I have to call out or come in late due to my diabetes complications the harassment is worse to the point my boss will block off my area with pallets, unplug my computer, talk down to me, mess with my personal belongings, take away things I need to complete work and not answer any question I have regarding work I’ll be told to figure it out and if I make a mistake because I can’t ask questions I’ll have a talk in the office for performance issues. I was scolded for having a bad memory and told I could not make notes to help remind me even though it doesn’t affect my performance as well. I kinda need the job for my insulin but at this point I’m just done.

I know it almost never happens but my employers won't fire me due to how strong a case I have. They were dumb enough to put things in writing. I will involuntarily resign and I need to know what legal action I can take when I get my right to sue from the EEOC. I know it's like a one-in-a-million chance but I need to know what kind of cases when and constructive dismissal and how I can get a lawyer to listen to my body of evidence once they've heard that I was not fired.

What if you are a valuable person in human resource and you are the rep at eeo. You have no one to complain to

Can you do a video that involves public employees, public employers, and unions? I know in one of your videos you say that your stuff doesn't apply to public employers.

I've got a lot of subjects to cover. I may do one like that in the future. FYI, a lot of what I do cover does apply. The statutes of limitations is different, there may be administrative remedies that need to be exhausted first, but many of the underlying laws apply to public employers as well. A lot of public entities have unions which changes the game (in some cases) as collective bargaining agreements vary widely.

You can be putting in a good performance and have stats to back it up but if the company has a 'rank and yank' policy you can be 'managed out' if your manager doesn't like you.

Wait so because you’re harassed that means you were a bad employee? Bias doesn’t exist? Performance punishment is also a thing or implicit biases that would cause someone to want to sabotage you at work by gossiping and spreading false rumors. Like WTH.

So when you talk about, liars and jurys. You say that if someone lies under oath.... is a statment considered underoath or no?

Is one male manager throwing an object to a female manager and after missing it the female manager says loudly " now why did you just make me bend over " to everyone while smiling! It felt really wrong to me just being there , it felt offensive being that I'm a victim of a crime when I was young.

The reason why I didn't say anything at work when I was working at the time. Because if I did I would have gotten fired for it. They kept frustrating me that's when I screamed a little I couldn't hold it back.

Understand a lot more about work place safety

How come there is all this help for harassment at work but not for where you live? Like if you landlord and tenants they are friends with are harassing you and there is literally a housing crisis and no money to move?

I live in California and my work is trying to make me get on mental health medicine for my PTSD, can work make or force you on medication and are they supposed to even know your personal health information? Please let me know. I'm in California and this school district doesn't stop harassing me...

Bullying and harassment by management does occur even if you're providing value to them and the company. Companies are secure in their positions with the financial resources that employees simply don't possess. In reality lawsuits are long, costly, and the hostile workplace will seem like a cakewalk compared to the legal process.

I used workmans comp when I was hit in the head at work because of a faulty safety on a machine. My boss brought the bill down to show me how much my mistake cost them. And then when the hit caused severe pain and I told him I was going to get an mri of my neck and upper back he told me to make sure and tell my dr it didnt happen at work. Out of fear of being fired I covered for my boss. Now I've been fired anyways and I'm looking for a lawyer
