New Workplace Institute

I'm a law professor at Suffolk University Law School, where I teach and write primarily in the field of employment & labor law. My particular focus is workplace bullying -- repeated, malicious mistreatment of workers by verbal and non-verbal means. I've started the New Workplace Institute, a research and education center devoted to promoting healthy, productive, and socially responsible workplaces. Please visit the Institute blog, Minding the Workplace (http://newworkplace.wordpress.com) for regular posts about workplace bullying, psychological health at work, workers' rights, the economy, and related topics.
