TOLFO, Suzana da Rosa; SILVA, Narbal  and  KRAWULSKI, Edite. Bullying: relationships with organizational culture and management of people. Salud de los Trabajadores [online]. 2013, vol.21, n.1, pp.5-18. ISSN 1315-0138.

The context of societal change and the world of work occurring over the last decades of the twentieth century present us with fundamental questions about the way work is characterized in modern organizations.. In this context, although difficult, it is essential to analyze and anticipate new organizational settings that are under construction. Among the phenomena present in these scenarios, derived from established employee relations, is bullying and its impact on workers’ health and production processes. The organizational culture and management model adopted are factors that may favor the emergence of bullying, because they are focused on results and productivity, ignoring harassment due to labor relations. However, culture can also be a vehicle for change in these contexts, when built on organizational values related to worker health and the adoption of management models geared at combating and eliminating bullying from daily work.
