Tackling Bullying Training – what forms can workplace bullying take?
Bullying and harassment have always been considered a sensitive area and one that many don’t feel able to raise or discuss, even though we all know the effects can be hugely damaging for both individuals and teams, as well as the reputation and productivity of the wider organisation.
Applying the same principle as you would to any other potential issue in the workplace can be a valuable step … create awareness through training and encourage any unacceptable behaviour to be challenged.
We often receive feedback from participants on our bullying in the workplace courses, expressing surprise at the different forms bullying can take which they hadn’t considered would be classified as bullying or harassment. As harassment is unlawful under the 2010 Equality Act, this type of awareness is not only valuable but essential to create an organisational culture free from bullying and harassment.
We list below a few useful resources which outline the forms workplace bullying can take:
Bullying at work behaviours

Types of bullying
The Tim Field Foundation has a valuable article which identifies and explains some of the different types of bullying found in workplaces, from corporate bullying to vicarious bullying.
We also have a Bullying Awareness Resources page on our website which provides links to both our own and external articles relating to different aspects of workplace bullying.
