Do we need a workplace bullying law?
Saturday, July 17th, 2010
Check your local Sunday newspaper Parade magazine on July 18 for brief mention of the Healthy Workplace Bill legislative campaign. But go online to this page and vote now
UPDATE: As of Thurs. July 22, 93% of those who voted want a law! To elected state & federal legislators: if you are looking for a “populist” thing to do to help your beleaguered constituents, turn your back on SHRM and the Chamber of Commerce and do something for the “small people” (aka, the real persons, not Supreme Court “persons,” the corporations.)
For those new to the Workplace Bullying Institute, visit our Healthy Workplace Bill Legislative Campaign website to see the history of the anti-bullying bill movement led by State Coordinators and citizen lobbyists just like you. Sign up to help in your state.
