Setting boundaries at work
Non-Heteronormative Sexual Orientations at Work
This article focuses on the interactional dynamics which take place during disclosure of non-heteronormative sexual orientations at work. Since the disclosure might be considered a process through which lesbian and gay (LG) people share information about their personal life at work, Boundary Theory, which explores how people create boundaries between life domains, allows us to better understand disclosure dynamics. For this purpose, 39 Spanish le…
Trapped in the abject
The place of humour in organisational interactions has been the subject of long-standing interest. Studies have considered the positive role of humour in increasing social contact and promoting group cohesion, while warning it can be a means for expressing hostility and excluding group members. However, more ambiguous uses of humour remain underexplored and under-theorised. Using a single case study of employee experiences at 'Hillside', a high-s…
Bullying and Harassment in the Workplace
Fitting the bill? (Dis)embodied disclosure of sexual identities in the workplace
The disclosure of lesbian, gay or bisexual identity is generally presented as a conscious act of leaving heterosexuality. Such interpretation fails to take into account the dynamic processes involved in constructing non-heterosexual identities and to what degree such identities are embodied or disembodied. Supported by interview data among lesbian and gay employees in six British workplaces, this article explores how non-heterosexual identities b…
Workplace Bullying
The phenomenon of workplace bullying refers to repeated exposure to unwanted negative acts, be it personal or work‐related, and of a predominantly psychological nature, and where there exists a power imbalance between the protagonists. Although bullying may take on different forms, for example, targeted behavior against one or more individuals, or arising from a dispute or conflict between two parties, its presence is associated with negative out…
It's Nothing Personal
Scholarship on homophobia has been critiqued for being individualistic and psychological, failing to account for structural inequalities, experiences of homophobia and discursive manifestations of homophobia. This Economic and Social Research Council funded study attempts to address some of these concerns by focusing on the experiences of lesbians, gay men and bisexuals (LGBs) in relation to bullying, harassment and discrimination in the British …
Workplace bullying and the employment relationship
Previous research strongly indicates that the perpetrators of workplace bullying in Britain are mainly managers. Contrary to the predominant view in workplace bullying literature and despite cost implications for employers, this article proposes an agenda for future empirical research focused on whether employers may also benefit significantly from bullying. It outlines a definition of workplace bullying, key debates and prescriptions suggested i…
Empirical Findings on Prevalence and Risk Groups of Bullying in the Workplace
During the 1990s, the concept of bullying or mobbing at work found resonance within large sections of the European working population as well as in the academic community. A wide range of popular as well as academic books and articles were published in many European languages (e.g., Ege, 1996; Einarsen et al., 1994b; Field, 1996; Leymann, 1993; Niedl, 1995;CONTENTSIntroduction ......................................................................…
Bullying and Harassment in the Workplace
Harassment in the workplace, and in particular sexual harassment, has remained a significant issue, despite the application of legislation covering these issues for many years. In addition, there are now moves to regulate inappropriate conduct in the workplace more generally, though efforts to identify such conduct as a form of bullying. The intention of this briefing is to indicate what legal avenues apply to controlling inappropriate workplace …
Measuring exposure to bullying and harassment at work
This study investigates the psychometric properties, factor structure and validity of the revised Negative Acts Questionnaire-Revised (NAQ-R), an instrument designed to measure exposure to bullying in the workplace. By reanalyzing data based on a heterogeneous sample of 5288 UK employees, the results show that the 22-item instrument has a high internal stability, with three underlying factors: personal bullying, work-related bullying and physical…
Preserving masculinity in service work
This article explores bus drivers' underreporting of passengers' anti-social behaviour within the UK bus industry. Anti-social behaviour is a widespread phenomenon affecting a large proportion of the working population across many sectors and occupations. Although internal reporting systems can provide organizations with necessary information to tackle this problem, where employees regularly fail to report anti-social behaviour and where such und…
The Customer is Always Right
Drawing on in-depth qualitative data from the British Public Employment Service (ES), this article sets out to examine the concept of customer bullying, an aspect largely overlooked within the literature. Highlighting the subjective, socially constructed nature of bullying, this article found that certain customer behaviours that were consistent with definitions of workplace bullying were not labelled as such by the ES frontline staff, but instea…

Bullying is detrimental to health, but all bullying behaviours are not necessarily equally damaging
The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of 'negative behaviours' and 'bullying' in the workplace on the health and well-being of employees, to what extent the effects remain beyond the period of the experience as well as the extent to which they affect third-parties or witnesses. The paper also raises the question whether some behaviours associated with bullying may be more damaging than others. Potential sex differences and difference…
Bullying and Emotional Abuse in the Workplace
Victimization in the school and the workplace
We examine whether reported roles in school bullying, and victimization in the workplace, are connected; the influence of victim coping strategies at school; and sex differences. A questionnaire was completed by 5,288 adults from various workplace venues in Great Britain. We analysed two questions on school experiences (participant role; coping strategies if bullied) and questions on workplace bullying (experiences of being bullied). We found a s…

Bullying and Emotional Abuse in the Workplace
Workplace Bullying
Workplace bullying is an area that has attracted significant press attention throughout the last decade. A variety of well publicized surveys have revealed that this is an issue endemic in working life in Britain; and, at a conservative estimate, over half the working population can expect to experience bullying at work (either directly by being bullied, or through witnessing it) at some stage in their careers. This is now seen to be a disturbing…
A Summary Review of Literature Relating to Workplace Bullying
This paper is intended to provide literature signposts for the new researcher into adult bullying. A concise, but not exhaustive, overview of literature relating to workplace bullying is undertaken. It draws on the base provided by work into school bullying and progresses to the arena of adult bullying. In both fields Scandinavian countries have contributed a significant proportion of the research. Research reported in the English language into a…
