Action Against Workplace Bullying Through Petition

by Rex
(United Kingdom)

There is plenty of publicity in the form of articles, books, websites, blogs, that document the fact that workplace bullying is a serious problem. These publications offer some suggestions on how to lessen or mitigate the impact of the problem, however they do not offer a satisfactory solution.

Speaking from my own experience and that of others, I realised that what is needed is far more radical than what is currently available. New laws, new procedures and drastic changes in management attitude and accountability are needed. This requires the involvement and commitment of politicians and lawmakers. They in turn can be motivated to act by the people they represent.

Take action against workplace bullying. Canvas your political representatives. There are petitions available through the internet. Find live petitions against workplace bullying and sign them. Alternatively submit your own petition.
