Books in the Handbooks of Workplace Bullying, Emotional Abuse and Harassment series

This volume embodies the twin purpose of highlighting topics beyond the purview of themes commonly associated with workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment and of presenting insights into those occupations and professions which either have received extensive research attention or hold a pronounced propensity to trigger workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment. Section 1, which comprises special topics, captures the intersection between workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment and specific circumstances such as whistleblowing and climate or particular attributes such as ethics and ostracism. In so doing, it extends the boundaries of the substantive area, stimulating new themes for further research and indicating new areas for action. Section 2 draws attention to how misbehaviour inheres in particular kinds of tasks and livelihoods due to job design, work organization and other elements such as power, external environment, employment patterns and so on. A range of occupations and professions such as academia, nursing, law, creative work, precarious work and so on is covered, reflecting emergent developments in the labour market so as to include those with longstanding and considerable research findings and those where empirical inquiries are more recent.
