Bullying

Long-term problems in the workplace such as bullying are very stressful and should not be played down. Bullying describes repeated, systematic attacks against an inferior person through insults, exclusion, harassment or obstruction of work - often by several perpetrators. This destroys self-confidence, quality of life and ability to work.

Sexualized harassment, discrimination and violence

Sexualized harassment, discrimination and violence are widespread in society and are also part of everyday university life. These assaults cause serious damage to mental and physical health, but are often trivialized or concealed. At universities, this is exacerbated by dependency or hierarchical relationships that make it difficult for those affected to defend themselves against words, gestures or actions.
