Workplace bullying is a persistent pattern of mistreatment from others in the workplace that causes either physical or emotional harm.[1][1] It can include such tactics as humiliation, verbal, nonverbal, psychological, and physical abuse. This type of workplace aggression is particularly difficult because unlike the typical school bully, a workplace bully often operates within the established rules and policies of their organization and their society. In the majority of cases, bullying in the workplace is reported as being done by someone who has authority over their victim. However, bullies can also be peers and occasionally subordinates.[2][2] Research has also investigated the impact of the larger organizational context on bullying. Including the group-level processes that impacts the incidence and maintenance of bullying behavior.[3][3] Bullying can be covert or overt and it may be missed by superiors, it may also be known by many throughout the organization. Negative effects are not limited to the targeted individuals and may lead to a decline in employee morale and a change in organizational culture.[4][4]

Ideally there should be 0-1 sections where it says “doctor _____ defines bullying as” instead of like 5. Who cares about these doctors 97.126.89.248 (talk) 19:59, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
