Cyberbullying in Organizations

Abstract

Cyberbullying in organizations refers to the use of technology, such as social media, email, instant messaging, or other digital platforms, to harass, intimidate, or humiliate someone in the workplace. Cyberbullying in organizations can have a significant impact on individuals and the workplace as a whole. It can lead to decreased morale, increased turnover, decreased productivity, and increased absenteeism. Cyberbullying can also have legal and financial consequences for both the victim and the organization. Organizations can take steps to prevent and address cyberbullying, such as establishing clear policies and procedures for online behavior, providing training to employees on appropriate digital communication, and responding quickly and effectively to reports of cyberbullying. By creating a culture of respect and accountability, organizations can work to prevent cyberbullying and promote a safe and supportive workplace for all employees.
