Law, Workplace Bullying and Moral Urgency
本文指出法律对职场欺凌的处理零散且不令人满意,认为需要设立独立的诉讼理由来为受害者提供法律保护。
Abstract The law’s approach to workplace bullying is fragmented and unsatisfactory. Where bullying is carried out for a discriminatory reason, there is a specific cause of action in the Equality Act, although this, itself, has significant limitations. If the bullying is for a non-discriminatory reason, not even this level of targeted protection is available. This article discusses the phenomenon of workplace bullying and argues that a freestanding cause of action is required to provide some measure of legal protection to victims.
