It will also outline how bullying contributes to a legally actionable hostile work environment.

• Common bullying behaviors — verbal abuse, sabotage, exclusion, intimidation, and excessive criticism.
• High‑risk environments — competitive workplaces, poorly supervised teams, and organizations lacking HR oversight.
