The BBC ran a radio documentary programme in 1990. In this programme Andrea Adams (a freelance journalist) introduced the topic and played taped interviews of people talking about their negative experiences at work. Despite the fact that the programme was broadcast during the evening which is not a peak listening time, it provoked a strong response from the public. Andrea Adams continued her work on the topic. She wrote an excellent book for targets of bullying which was published in 1992. Whilst the media has played an extremely important role in heightening awareness, a less positive role can be given to the management training community and its allied organisations. Mainstream management texts rarely contain any reference to bullying at work, and certainly are scant of suggestions as to what to do about it. In most countries there is no law against harassment, even though seemingly legal claims under race and gender legislation can have bullying at their base. Research reveals that UK laws at least are being stretched to embrace bullying (Earnshaw and Cooper 1996), but this strategy is particularly difficult for white men to follow as they fall outside the discrimination laws. International law may alter this as trading blocks include a social element which includes employee rights. As such, the issue normally remains limited to our workplaces and the media, whilst government and the legal profession have yet to deal totally with it.
