Victorian Workplace Bullying Seminars
Bullying
Bullying is a community problem that exists in schools, workplaces and other organisations.
Bullying is repeated, unreasonable behaviour directed to an employee or group of employees that creates a risk to health and safety.
WorkSafe's research consistently shows 14 per cent of Victorian workers experienced bullying.

As well as creating a risk to health and safety, bullying can impact an organisation through reduced productivity, staff turnover and legal costs.
The WorkSafe guide, Preventing and responding to bullying at work, will assist people with duties under occupational health and safety (OHS) to comply with those laws in relation to bullying at work. The following tools can be used to help implement the advice in the guide: What to do if bullying happens to you, Employer checklist - preventing and responding to bullying at work and the Bullying risk indicator.
This publication provides advice applicable to any workplace in Victoria.
