Bullying might be a regular pattern of behaviour or a one-off incident. It can happen face-to-face, on social media, in emails or calls, and can happen at work or in other work-related situations. Examples of bullying at work could include constantly criticising someone's work, spreading malicious rumours about someone, constantly putting someone down in meetings, deliberately giving someone a heavier workload than everyone else, excluding someone from team social events, and putting humiliating, offensive or threatening comments or photos on social media. Bullying can also happen from staff towards someone more senior, for example a manager, and can include showing continued disrespect, refusing to complete tasks, spreading rumours, constantly undermining someone's authority, and doing things to make someone seem unskilled or unable to do their job properly. It can be difficult for someone in a senior role to realise they're experiencing bullying behaviour from their staff. Bullying behaviour can be offensive, intimidating, malicious or insulting, and can be an abuse or misuse of power that undermines, humiliates, or causes physical or emotional harm to someone.
