Pass the anti-bullying Healthy Workplace Bill

The Issue

• Current laws do not address workplace bullying/abusive conduct

• 35% of adult Americans experience workplace bullying (WBI 2010 U.S. National Survey)

• Harm includes stress-related diseases (cardiovascular, immunological, gastrointestinal), plus anxiety, clinical depression and PTSD.

• Without laws, employers can legally ignore this abusive conduct, and do.

Please pass a state law that gives workers for the right to sue their employer for subjecting them to an abusive, malicious, health harming workplace. Allow employers who prevent and correct it to be free from liability. Adopt the Healthy Workplace Bill.
