How do you know if your being bullied or is your manager just being a tough and has high expectations?

The analysis is fact specific and we would have to look at the particulars of the conduct in question. In very general terms harassing behavior is intimidating, threatening, demeaning, and humiliating and may have a detrimental effect on a person's physical and emotional well-being. In contrast, changes in work assignments or schedules, job evaluations and reasonable disciplinary action do not amount to harassment. I encourage you to give us a call for a consultation with one of our lawyers.
