Ms. Maskell moved a Bill to provide for a statutory definition of bullying at work, enabling claims relating to workplace bullying to be considered by an employment tribunal; to give powers to the Equalities and Human Rights Commission to investigate workplaces and organisations where there is evidence of a culture of, or multiple incidents of, bullying; and for connected purposes. She highlighted that 29% of workers experience workplace bullying at some point and one in ten have experienced it within the last six months. The Bill aims to promote respect at work by setting minimum standards for positive and respectful work environments, providing legal protection against bullying.
