To effectively prevent workplace bullying, organizations need to ensure that they have a clear policy against workplace bullying. It is also essential that their employees are aware that such a policy is in place. Organizations can communicate this to their employees through the use of mediums such as notices, newsletters, internal memorandums and awareness campaigns. Training is essential for those who will be involved in dealing with complaints of workplace bullying, and these will include managers and HR personnel.

When organisations discuss workplace bullying openly and have processes and procedures to reduce and tackle workplace bullying, they will create a safe work environment for their employees.
