In fact, according to a recent report from The Associated Press, workplace bullying is poised to become &#8220;the next major battleground in employment law.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In previous posts, we&#8217;ve reviewed a few professional settings where high pressure and hot tempers can collide, resulting in outbursts that\u00a0could\u00a0potentially harm employees, patients, clients and careers. In response to increased complaints of verbal and physical abuse in the workplace, the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/US\/wireStory\/growing-push-halt-workplace-bullying-18625977\">source<\/a>\u00a0reports that many industries have begun to incorporate anti-bullying measures that could range from suspension to mandatory anger management courses.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, various state legislators are reportedly working toward expanding the rights of victims to take their complaints beyond the workplace and pursue legal action against their aggressors. As federal law currently stands, it is difficult for an individual who is not in a protected group to seek help from legal officials if they are being mistreated at work.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;More than a dozen states have considered anti-bullying laws in the past year that would allow litigants to pursue lost wages, benefits and medical expenses and compel employers to prevent an &#8216;abusive work environment,'&#8221; the source states.<\/p>\n<p>If you have an anger management issue, you may unwittingly be creating a tense workspace for your colleagues, and could even leave yourself vulnerable to a lawsuit in future. But, by taking\u00a0<a class=\"dnautolink\" href=\"https:\/\/masteringanger.com\/staging\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">online anger management courses<\/a>, you can equip yourself with the skills you need to handle problematic situations calmly and rationally. Plus, you will likely find that the techniques you learn through our Web-based programs will benefit you in other areas of your life as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While bullying is often associated with the hallways of a high school or the playground at recess, this issue is as great a problem for&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8239,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[89],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8238","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog",""],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Could anger management classes be the answer to workplace bullying?
