How to deal with BULLYING in the workplace
In this episode, we dive into one of the most common issues people face at work: workplace bullying.
I break down what is and isn’t considered bullying, the signs to look out for, and why understanding the difference matters for both employees and employers.
You’ll hear practical strategies on what you can do if you believe you’re being bullied, including how to approach the situation, and what steps to take to protect yourself. I also cover the key organisations and contacts you can reach out to for advice, support, and lodging a formal complaint.
Bullying doesn’t just affect your job, it affects your mental health.
Whether you need professional help, someone to talk to, or resources to help you cope, this episode points you in the right direction with Australian-based mental health options.
If you're experiencing workplace bullying or supporting someone who is, this episode will empower you with knowledge, clarity, and the confidence to take the next step.
