“…Such a policy contains an explicit managerial commitment to a bullyingfree environment, examples of bullying behaviors, complaints procedures, and possible consequences for perpetrators (48).

“…2003;Matthiesen, Einarsen 2004], organizacje zaczną traktować opisywany problem poważnie i będą wypracowywać coraz to skuteczniejsze procedury i mechanizmy ochrony zdrowia psychicznego oraz godności pracownika w miejscu pracy [Hirigoyen 2003;Durniat 2011aDurniat , 2011bDurniat , 2014Kunecka 2010]. Niestety, zarówno w naszym kraju, jak i na świecie istnieją nieliczne badania naukowe [Resch, Schubinski 1996;Salin 2008;Mikkelsen i in. 2011;Durniat 2012;Harrington i in.…”

Niestety, zaprezentowane w niniejszym artykule wyniki badań pozwalają na postawienie hipotezy, że w naszym kraju istnieje nadal wiele organizacji, które nie uczyniły jeszcze nic w zakresie ochrony pracowników przed mobbingiem.…”

“…The choice of regression for the purpose of this study has been adopted from the work of Salin (2008). Also, the suitability of any statistical technique is primarily derived from the purpose of the analysis; and for the bivariate association identified in this paper, linear associations are accurate because with linear regression coefficients, the sum of components always correspond to the bivariate association (Hellevik, 2009).…”
