What should I do if I witness bullying at work?

  • First of all acknowledge your emotions when the bullying is taking place.
  • Why? It is important as it will help you to formulate your reply to the person with the bullying behaviour.
  • If it is difficult to formulate your feelings, do a Google search to find a list of emotions and choose those expressing how you feel. Don’t lie or exaggerate, just the truth is good enough.
  • Please don’t enable the bullying behaviour, don’t stay quiet.
  • Expose the unacceptable behaviour but do it the right way.
  • Make sure you keep supporting the person who has been targeted.
