Workplace Bullying
Workplace bullying refers to repeated, unreasonable actions of individuals (or a group) directed towards an employee (or a group of employees), which is intended to intimidate and creates a risk to the health and safety of the employee(s).
Workplace bullying often involves an abuse or misuse of power.
Bullying includes behavior that intimidates, degrades, offends, or humiliates a worker, often in front of others.
Bullying is different from aggression. Aggression may involve a single act, bullying involves repeated acts. Bullying situations can involve employees to coworkers, employees to supervisors or supervisors to employees.
Unwarranted or invalid criticism.
Blame without factual justification.
Being treated differently than the rest of your work group.
Being sworn at.
Exclusion or social isolation.
Being shouted at or being humiliated.
Being the target of practical jokes.
Excessive monitoring
Many of us may have thought bullying ended in the schoolyard, but it is being recognized in the corporate world too. And like any form of disrespect, it is inappropriate in the workplace.
Social Media
Social Media has played a vital part in our ability to communicate to our members, as well as get out information to the membership fast. This has helped us to organize and keep the Cincinnati Post Office open for the forseeable future. There are things that you can do to get to word out!
