said amen phyllis i too will be helping to further these goals in my state it is on the back burner of our state now but i will be heard i worked in the healthcare field for 13yrs and was bullied for two years i asked my supervisors hr and finally my ceo for help i was fired within a week of contacting my ceo there were no policies within my company to protect the targets of this horrible scenario i actually cried when i listened to gary namie described workplace bullying his description was right on target with what i went through i am a administrator for a closed site against workplace bullying now reply bogosian on january 23 2013 at 1 59 am said funny if you get bad service at a restaurant no one hesitates to name the business so that others can avoid it and thus motivate the business to change in the only way businesses know how by being hurt in the pocketbook and yet no one names these businesses they accuse of the utmost cruelty i want to know unless one is lying why would one spare me a bad experience at a restaurant i might go to otherwise but not a company with a ceo who fires you for reporting two years of abuse i do not want to do business with such a company why do you protect the organization why not name them if you didn t remain anonymous in the reporting do we think naming a business that rewards bullies and punishes targets is wrong i don t ever want my daughters to work in such a place either i don t care if the actual bully is now gone etc i want to help change workplace bullying by voting with my pocketbook even if the only thing i accomplish is to continue to be able to look myself in the mirror so tell me outabully icloud com reply dee on february 19 2014 at 6 55 am said i work for a top nyc law firm and if i name them i am out of a job

fend off the bully and it has worked for me it gave me control of my situation when i need time i take it whether its a day half day or 15 minutes late because i has a panic attack on the train thinking about work i am surprised that fmla is not promoted as a helpful tool linda on february 4 2013 at 10 45 am said amen again please go to your state senate and house websites right now i am researching a bill for the state of florida that is called abusive workplace environments bill it is sb 308 and hb 149 these bills provide that employers are held accountable if any type of harrassment takes part in the workplace and they are aware of it currently for the state of florida their is no bill that addresses this type of harrassment so i will be backing this bill untill it is passed and if it does not pass i will be contacting my state representatives to see why it did not pass reply edyth cervera on august 26 2011 at 6 22 am said what a fantastic blog post can i set it up

at work even the close ones will and dont fool yourself turn against you when questioned about your situation even in a court or deposition situation they will say whatever they must say to protect their jobs or should i say to protect that pay check their families come first it is sad but very true and understandable sort of be ready to forgive and expect your co workers to listen with compassion and then repeat what you say if it appears to help protect their position good advice from me to you talk to your family about your work issues dont talk to your work friends about your

see unfortunately too late for me i was working in a hostile work environment in harrisburg pa i was just completely stunned by what went on there as i had never seen anything like it in a matter of weeks of working there i developed high blood pressure and got physically sick every morning before work this environment was caused by the supervisor yelling screaming things being thrown name calling etc horrible her supervisor was on site and a witness i was in his office many times to no avail as i was afraid to go up the chain of command i took the first available job that i could find and got out of there as this was just a few months ago i am sure it is still happening i was told that she has been there for two years and that is how long this has been going on i did try to find out if there was an agency that i could go to for help in pa as i wanted to keep my job i gave up good pay and benefits for minimum wage and no benefits and all i was able to find out was that i had to have documented discrimination for any action to be taken reply brit on january 7 2013 at 10 58 pm said my hostile workplace situation involved with s c has been making sexual and racist comments things has been turned inappropriate pretty quickly he is telling me sexual things that he wants to do to me and i am telling him that i just want to talk the worst part is that he told me if i said anything he would make my life a living hell he harasses me in ways of threatening my job calling me at home numerous times to come into work calling me a worthless employee and risking the safety of my other employees i try to stay out of his way but it seems like he looks for me he got a new job in colorado he asked that we forget about everything and told me he hadn t been avoiding me for the past week to be honest i just want the whole thing to go away without anyone s career being impacted there is no reason ever to tolerate a hostile work environment it s insidious it s damaging and it s unacceptable i encourage you to stand up to anyone who harasses you and devalues your work but if your employer hires or keeps on staff someone who thinks it s okay to treat you like a second class citizen that means your company is already broken reply cindy on january 22 2013 at 12 59 pm said i am unsure of what steps to take to find help on this issue at this point i really feel helpless but know i can no longer work under these conditions the manager boss is the person doing the bullying there are only 3 of us that work here at a small credit union and 2 of them are management and are best friends even outside of work i have no one to go to not even the board of directors because she is on the board as well she never talks to me in...
