So, does your current work culture quash workplace bullying or enable it?<\/p>\n Workplace bullying is profoundly prevalent in our workplaces. The Workplace Bullying Institute\u2019s 2021 U.S. survey\u00a0<\/a>found that 30% of adult Americans have been bullied at work. 49% of respondents reported experiencing or witnessing bullying in their workplaces.<\/p>\n Remote workers are not immune. The WBI survey found that 43% of remote workers experienced bullying through online meetings (50% reported) and email (9% reported).<\/p>\n A single instance of workplace bullying is too much. The costs are just too great:<\/p>\n\n
