Officials – Mental harassment – Definition
An official who claims to have been the victim of mental harassment must, irrespective of the subjective perception which
he may have had of the facts alleged by him, put forward a body of evidence proving that he has been subjected to conduct
aimed, on an objective view, at discrediting him or at deliberately impairing his working conditions, in other words, conduct
which, viewed objectively, is of an intentional nature.
