Özet

İşletmelerde psikolojik yıldırma ve zorbalık, iş ortamında çalışan-eşitler-yöneticiler arasında sergilenen ve bir tarafın saf dışı bırakılması amacını güden çeşitli kötü muamele davranışlarını içeren bir süreç olarak tanımlanabilir. Bu makale, global bir proje kapsamında Türkiye örnekleminden toplanan nitel veriden elde edilen bulguları sunmakta, zorbalığın tanımını insan kaynakları yönetimi alanında çalışan profesyonellerin IK profesyonelleri gözünden vermektedir. Nitel araştırma tekniklerinin kullanıldığı bu çalışmaya göre, IK profesyonelleri zorbalığı, söylenti çıkarmak, kişiyi değersiz hissettirmek gibi davranışlar yoluyla mağduru işini yapamaz hale getirmeyi ve kendiliğinden çalıştığı kurumu, bölümü ya da işi bırakmasını hedefleyen davranışlar olarak görmektedir. Ağırlıklı olarak yöneticiden asta yönelik olarak sergilenmekle birlikte, akranlar arasında ya da asttan üste yönelik olarak da gözlenmektedir. Bu makale, Türkiye’de iş ortamında zorbalığın nasıl tanımlandığını, hangi tetikleyicilere bağlı olarak ortaya çıktığını ve ne tür sonuçlar doğurduğunu nitel veriye dayalı olarak sunmaktadır
