    In a 2010 survey of over 1,000 workers who identified as targets of workplace bullying, 13% felt they somehow deserved the criticism, 36% blamed themselves for not confronting the bullying, and 22% felt embarrassed for allowing it to happen. The survey shows that many bullying victims lack education on the topic and power to address it. To combat workplace bullying, victims need tools like knowledge of their rights and workplaces need to make bullying policies clear.

    Psychological Triggers

    In Nov. 2010 a WBI instant poll with 1069 respondents were asked questions about being bullied at work. It should be noted that 98% described themselves as targets of workplace bullying. When they were asked if any personal shame or stigma was attached to being bullied at work the results were as follows:

    29%

    What does this survey tell us? It tells us that many of the people who are being bullied are not educated on workplace bullying. When people arent educated on a topic, they lack the power to combat issues, which in this case is workplace bullying. What needs to be done? Give victims the tools to combat workplace bullying. This means that they need as much knowledge on workplace bullying as possible. They also need people at their workplace to make these issues known.
