Abstract

Important opportunities exist for employees who are bullied in the work place to take civil action against employers for failing to provide them with a safe work environment. However, many logistical impediments lie in the way of successful actions for harm caused by bullying. This editorial scrutinises two important cases, Naidu v Group 4 Securitas Pty Ltd [2005] NSWSC 618; Nationwide News Pty Ltd v Naidu; ISS Security Pty Ltd v Naidu [2007] NSWCA 377 and Green v DB Group Services (UK) Ltd [2006] EWHC 1898 where workers were successful in such actions and explores the repercussions of their success.
