Bullying is a combination of belittling, marginalising
or discriminatory actions towards a person or group in the workplace (including schools or training
centres) over a longer period of time. The aim is usually to persuade the person concerned to resign
or be transferred. Bullying usually manifests itself in the offences of insult, defamation or slander.
Bullying has nothing in common with the classic "teasing" or "annoying", but is now a serious problem
that also causes major health and economic damage.
