Description

This newsgroup is for individuals interested in mounting a grassroots campaign in NJ that addresses workplace bullying by educating the public & by promoting the passage of legislation to deal with this unacceptable behavior.

It is (a) is driven by perpetrators' need to control the targeted individual(s), (b) is initiated by bullies who choose targets, timing, place and methods, (c) escalates to involve others who side with the bully, either voluntarily through coercion, and it (d) undermines legitimate business interests when bullies' personal agendas take precedence over work itself.
