Mobbing

Mobbing refers to a situation where an individual experiences ongoing, repeated bullying or harassment by a group, often at the workplace. This collective behavior can include spreading rumors, social exclusion, verbal assaults, or other hostile actions aimed at undermining or intimidating the person. The goal is usually to isolate, belittle, or force the person out of the environment. Mobbing can have serious emotional and psychological effects on the victim, impacting their well-being and productivity. It’s different from isolated incidents of conflict; mobbing involves sustained, coordinated efforts by multiple people.
