Publication: İşyerinde Zorbalık
Abstract
işyerinde zorbalık olgusu, bir bireye bir veya birkaç kişi tarafından sistemli biçimde yöneltilen, düşmanca ve ahlak dışı bir iletişime dayanır. Zorbalıkla karşılaşan birey, oldukça sık görülen ve uzun bir sürece yayılan kötü davranışların hedefi olur. Örgütsel ve bireysel faktörlerle ilişkili olan bu davranışlar doğrudan veya dolaylı ve işle ilgili veya kişisel nitelikte eylemler olarak gruplanabilir. Tekrarlanan olumsuz davranışlarla karşılaşan kişi, kendisini dışlanmış, aşırı çalışmaya zorlanmış ve kişilik hakları, mesleki statüsü ve sağlığı açısından zedelenmiş hisseder. Zorbalığın hedefi olan birey, hem kendisi hem de örgüt için ciddi sonuçlar doğurabilecek fiziksel ve psikolojik sorunlarla yüz yüze gelir. Karar verme konumlanndaki yöneticilerin zorbalığın önlenmesi için sistem geliştirme konusuna önem vermeleri beklenmektedir.
Bullying at work is a phenomenon that is based on hostile and unethical communication which is directed in a systematic manner by one or a few individuals towards one individual. The bullied individual becomes the target of abusive behaviors on a very frequent basis and over a long period of time. These behaviors that are associated with organizational and individual factors may be grouped as direct or indirect and work-related or person related. The person who is subjected to repeated negative acts feels isolated, pressured to overwork, and threatened in terms of personal reputation, professional status, and physical health. The target of bullying suffers from physical and psychological symptoms that are costly for both the individual and the organization. The company decision makers are expected to give attention to issues of setting up systems for preventing bullying.
