The role of the principal in maintaining a harmonious working environment : an investigation into "legal" staff bullying by the school management team in Ekurhuleni North District high schools

Binduko, Samuel 06 1900 (has links)
Workplace bullying studies have gathered an increasing impetus among researchers throughout the world in the last decade. Previous research has concentrated on bullying in the context of students. Recent research has shifted focus towards workplace bullying of staff by managers. Little is known of upwards bullying where staff members bully managers or students bully their teachers. In this study, workplace bullying focuses on the bullying of teaching staff by the School Management Team. The researcher used the qualitative method for this study. Questionnaires were administered to 80 teachers. Interviews were held with eight members of the School Management Team (SMT) and ten teachers who perceived that they had been subjected to bullying. Data was coded and arranged thematically using Colaizzi’s (1978) phenomenological method of analysis. Results indicate that bullying of the teaching staff thrives in all schools but with varying degrees to certain teachers who are vulnerable due to social and environmental circumstances. The researcher recommends that schools identify cases of bullying and develop an anti- bullying policy that is incorporated in the whole school development strategy. / Educational Leadership and Management / M.

Harcèlement moral au travail et inducteurs organisationnels, quels impacts sur l’engagement affectif, l’intention de quitter et la détresse psychologique : le soutien social et la théorie de l'autodétermination comme mécanisme explicatifs / Workplace moral harassment and organizational failures, what impact on emotional engagement, intention to leave, and psychological distress : social support and the theory of self-determination as an explanatory mechanism

Malola, Pascal 12 December 2018 (has links)
La présente thèse porte sur le harcèlement moral au travail (HMT). Elle a pour objectif d’étudier d’une part ses effets sur la justice organisationnelle (JO), le climat de sécurité psychosociale (PSC), la détresse psychologique, l’intention de quitter l’entreprise et l’engagement affectif. D’autre part, elle cherche à étudier le rôle médiateur du soutien social de la hiérarchie et de la théorie de l’autodétermination (TAD) (satisfaction et frustration des besoins psychologiques).Afin de répondre à ces objectifs, trois études ont été réalisées. La première étude évalue d’une part les effets du HMT sur la détresse psychologique et l’intention de quitter l’entreprise et, d’autre part,le rôle médiateur du soutien social de la hiérarchie. La deuxième étude propose de tester le rôle médiateur de la satisfaction des besoins psychologiques entre les inducteurs organisationnels (HMTet JO) et individuels (l’intention de quitter l’entreprise et l’engagement affectif). Une troisième étude examine, les effets du HMT et le PSC sur les inducteurs individuels (l’intention de quitter l’entreprise et l’engagement affectif) dans le secteur de la santé. Cette dernière étude montre également le rôle médiateur de la frustration des besoins psychologiques. Pour conclure, les résultats de la thèse montrent l'impact négatif du HMT et d'autres facteurs tels que l'OJ et PSC chez les salariés. Soulignons que ces résultats révèlent également que les besoins psychologiques(satisfaction et frustration) jouent un rôle déterminant en milieu organisationnel. La discussion générale de la thèse dégage les implications et les conclusions découlant des études. / This thesis deals with workplace bullying (WB). It aims to study on one hand its effects onorganizational justice (OJ), psychosocial safety climate (PSC), psychological distress, intention toleave the company and emotional commitment. On the other hand, it seeks to study the mediatingrole of the social support of the hierarchy and the theory of self-determination (SDT) (psychologicalneed satisfaction and frustration). To meet these objectives, three studies were conducted. The firststudy evaluates, firstly, the effects of WB on psychological distress and the intention to leave thecompany and secondly the mediating role of the social support of the hierarchy. The second studyproposes to test the mediating role of the satisfaction of psychological needs between theorganizational and individual inducers (WB, OJ, the intention to leave the company and theemotional commitment). A third study examines the effects of BWP and PSC on individual inducers(intention to leave the company and emotional engagement) in the health sector. This last study alsobrings out the mediating role of the frustration of psychological needs. In conclusion, the results ofthe thesis attest the negative impact of bullying at work and other factors such as OJ and PSCamong employees. It should be noted that these results also reveal that psychological needs(satisfaction and frustration) play a determinant role in an organizational environment. The generaldiscussion of the thesis therefore releases the implications and conclusions of the studies.

Bullying: Out Of The School Halls And Into The Workplace

Cooney, Lucretia 01 January 2010 (has links)
The primary purpose of this study is to identify those people at most risk of being bullied at work. While much research is being conducted on school bullying, little has been conducted on workplace bullying. Using data gathered from a 2004 study conducted by the National Opinion Research Center for the General Social Survey, which included a Quality of Work Life (QWL) module for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), linear regressions indicated significant findings. As predicted, workers in lower level occupations, as ranked by prestige scoring developed at National Opinion Research, are more likely to be victimized. Data also suggest that being young, Black, and relatively uneducated may contribute to being bullied in certain situations. Future research is needed to examine influences of socio-economic, legal, and other demographic factors that may predict the chance of being bullied.
