Abstract |
After providing a definition of bullying and its psychosocial effects, this article proceeds to describe the responsibilities of employers and the rights of employees under the provisions of the Spanish law on the prevention of occupational hazards (see CIS 01-601). It distinguished between two types of bullying, "bossiness" (persecution by a supervisor or manager) and "mobbing" (persecution by peers). The various actions that persecuted persons can undertake are described: notifying labour inspection, legal action (under criminal, civil or administrative law) or notifying social security (recognition of the health consequences of bullying as an occupational disease). |
