Workplace bullying harassment and mental health

Bullying, harassment and other poor workplace behaviours are all serious problems.

They can cause significant work-related stress, which can lead to anxiety, depression and suicide.

These behaviours don’t just hurt the people involved. They affect others in the workplace and impact an organisation's ability to achieve its goals.

Bullying, harassment and poor workplace behaviours can happen in any type of workplace. And they can happen to anyone – from casual workers through to CEOs.
