Open Bullying Behaviours Physical violence Shouting or swearing at someone in public or private Instant rages over trivial matter Humiliating someone in front of colleagues Ignoring or isolating someone in public deliberately Ignoring the other person&rsquo;s point of view Labelling and name calling Personal insults or ridicule Sarcasm Smear campaigns Hidden Bullying behaviours Constantly undervaluing victim&rsquo;s efforts Persistent criticism of victim Setting deadlines for someone that are impossible to achieve Moving goal posts Withholding information and then blaming person for ignorance Spreading malicious unfounded rumours Ignoring, excluding and isolating a person Making threats Removing areas of responsibility for person for no real reason Giving menial or trivial tasks to person Stealing ideas and credit for achievements Giving too little or too much work Blocking promotion opportunities Refusing reasonable requests for holidays, training or assistance with workloads Do you recognise this behaviour in others you work with? Do you recognise some of these behaviours that you may exhibit at work?"}
