SD712: An Act Addressing Workplace Bullying, Mobbing, and Harassment, without Regard to Protected Class Status while Promoting Healthy Workplaces, filed by Senator Paul Feeney. Workplace bullying is the most serious form of employee mistreatment left largely unaddressed by current law. Most targets of severe workplace bullying have little or no recourse under Massachusetts law. This law would protect all employees from abusive mistreatment on an equal opportunity basis, filling a huge gap & will give severely bullied workers a right to seek damages. No longer will abused workers be left without legal protections. It is fair and efficient. It allows employers to minimize liability by preventing and responding to bullying situations. It also includes provisions that discourage weak or frivolous claims.
State Bill
