Leymann Inventory of Psychological Terror

The Leymann Inventory of Psychological Terror (LIPT) is a tool used to identify and measure experiences of workplace bullying and psychological abuse. It lists specific behaviors, such as verbal hostility, social exclusion, or intimidation, that a person may face from colleagues or supervisors. By assessing how frequently these behaviors occur, the LIPT helps determine if someone is experiencing ongoing psychological harassment at work. Its goal is to provide a structured way to recognize, understand, and address harmful work environments, promoting mental health and safety for employees.
