New regulations on workplace bullying in the Labour Code.
The government is planning a comprehensive reform of the legislation, which will strengthen protection for employees and impose new obligations on employers.
What will change?

• A new definition of workplace bullying – it will also cover unintentional actions and situations where someone encourages others to bully.
• Greater responsibility for employers – an obligation to prevent, monitor and support victims.
• Greater rights for employees – victims of workplace bullying will be able to claim compensation amounting to at least six months’ salary.
• New requirements for companies – the need to update work regulations, introduce anti-bullying procedures and respond effectively to breaches.
