still associate the word "hazing" with the army or with the school?Staro!It turns out that the oppression of younger seniors - a phenomenon not uncommon in the corporate world."Steers" subjected to more than a third of all working people.Source pressure - colleagues and clients, but the leaders, of course, heads: four out of five "Impact" was initiated by the boss.
building of glass and concrete, tidy "Open Space" with partitions and free tea pechenyushkami - in such an idyllic picture of office life is in full swing in all its diversity.Often, the situation in the companies, similar to the way of life in the barracks: the older set "power control" over the younger.Reasons for the existence of the laws of the jungle can be many - from the desire to fully enjoy the products of slave labor (as in the novel, Frederic Beigbeder "99 Francs") to the banal assertion caused a huge number of complexes.In other words, when the relationship of people in the office are no different from people in other relationships microsocium like prisons or schools, there are many.
Foreign researchers have long concerned with the relationship between the roughness of the office staff.Company blog Halogen Software (specializes in software for human resources consulting and assessment) talks about what threatens the ordinary "bull" the corporate world.Overall, the result is predictable: verbal and non-verbal tactics of suppression, as well as physical and mental abuse and threats do not promise nor employees nor the company any good.
initiators of "raids" are mainly managers.And "topam" to subordinate the lower level there is absolutely nothing to do, but the so-called middle managers here are pulled for fun: 60-80% of all cases of aggression - it is their handiwork.Like a red rag to such comrades are quiet and executive officers (which, at first glance, can not fight back), a smart and self-confident people (which is required to put in place).Provoke excessive aggressiveness can and environment - close offices or equipment unsuitable for everyday tasks.Also, people are getting angrier at rush jobs when the negative accumulated over time and can not find the exit.
Chiefs can be very creative in regard to the choice of tactics to "bulls", but ultimately it comes down to a few basic things.This setting unrealistic targets (work overload), the threat to professional status, the failure to provide the information necessary to perform the work, such refusal to recognize a job well done and a constant reminder of past failures.
stress, resulting from the pressure at work, according to the researchers, in some cases leading to irreparable consequences.In Japan, for example, the number of suicides related to "office depression" was 47% of the total number of suicides.But a blow delivered not only the objects of persecution, and witnesses.Fear and emotional exhaustion, which is experiencing involuntary witnesses of systematic "bulls" to colleagues, does not contribute to a healthy atmosphere in the team.Hence - the decline in labor productivity, the amount of which for Australia alone is estimated at $ 14.8 billion. Annually.
in bullying in the workplace is often involved a gender perspective.Of course, men are the more aggressive creatures often allow themselves to bully others.Confrontation men against men - the most popular event - 32% of cases.Slightly more rare conflicts "female-female" - 29%.Almost as often (28%) male "bychit" on a woman.Well, quite a rare event - when a woman begins to run into a man (11%).
So in conclusion, the blogger from Halogen Software indicates how to prevent hazing in the company.As elsewhere, there would be the most effective integrated prevention of this phenomenon.Healthy relationships begin with a team of caring about employees.This means that an employer should be puzzled at least create a good working environment.Followed by exchange information on how, where and under what circumstances was the place to be another "bull."Naturally, the initiators of bullying should be punished.Also very effective is work with the personnel.
People with inappropriate mental warehouse, which will most likely not take root in the soil of an already established corporate culture, should be identified and sent to the known address at the stage of preliminary selection.But the main thing - victims of "raids" should not gloss over the facts of aggression.Silence breeds impunity.In very very bad cases it is better to leave the band, code-named "spiders in the bank."Still, their mental health is not worth the salary - no matter how high it was.
