Hi there

This week we look at the often touchy and upsetting subject of your bullying work colleagues giving you a nickname that is intended to extend their bullying of you. Many workers experience workplace bullying that is subtle, normalised, and difficult to challenge, and one of the most overlooked forms of bullying, is being given a nickname by your colleagues that you did not choose and do not want.

In this week’s episode, we look at the impact of this bullying treatment and we look at your employer’s responsibilities to make it stop!

We’re always interested in your views, so let us know in our comments sections on our podcast sites, whether nickname bullying is happening or has happened you, and how this is being addressed by your manager.

Our FREE ‘WRITE IT DOWN’ Bullying Guide and Grievance Complaints Checklist are available here, to support you to catch your breathe. Use these guides to help you challenge unfair treatment at work. The links are also in the show notes below.

Hi there

In last week’s podcast episode we talked about polygamous working.

This week’s episode is about those real UK cases and workers who held multiple full-time jobs at the same time, without telling their employers, how long they did it, how much they earned (or tried to earn), and the costly consequences that followed.

Some workers have taken on freelance gigs or legitimate second jobs. However, other workers stepped over a line that many didn’t even realise existed - and ended up not just losing their job, but facing criminal charges and suspensions from the courts.

We look at those cases in this week’s episode.

We’re always interested in your views, so let us know in our comments sections on our podcast sites, whether polygamous working is a thing for you, and how you are making it work.

Our FREE ‘WRITE IT DOWN’ Bullying Guide and Grievance Complaints Checklist are available here. Use these guides to help you challenge unfair treatment at work. The links are also in the show notes below.

Hi there

This week we take a look at the often controversial world of polygamous working. If you don’t know what that is, or whether this is something you are practicing, this is the podcast episode for you.

In this episode, we look at what polygamous working actually is; what the law says about you if you work in this way how you might get caught out; and how you can protect yourself if you need to take on another job in addition to your substantive 9-5 job.

We’re always interested in your views, so let us know in our comments sections on our podcast sites, whether polygamous working is a thing for you, and how you are making it work.

Hi there

So… another week … another set of workers who are challenging their employer about their employment status. And, this week, we look at why dozens of NHS delivery drivers are challenging their Royal Mail employer because they say their employer has categorised them as self employed, when everything about their jobs, says they are workers.

The issue at stake here, is the difference between receiving a guaranteed national minimum wage after deductions – and, being expected to cover all your costs as a self-employed driver, working alongside other Royal Mail drivers who are given a fairer status for their jobs.

Our FREE ‘WRITE IT DOWN’ Bullying Guide and Grievance Complaints Checklist are available here. Use these guides to help you challenge unfair treatment at work. The links are also in the show notes below.

Hi there,

In this week’s episode, we look at a form of bullying which up to 14million of you are suffering from in the UK, as we speak. That form of bullying is called Sabotage Bullying.

Sabotage bullying behaviour is some of the most damaging bullying at work because it is quieter and harder to spot, so we take you through what this type of bullying might look like, and what sabotage bullies are likely to do to undermine you at work.

In this episode, we reference the following podcast episodes:

· Episodes 277, 278 and 287 reference constructive dismissal

· Episodes 26 and 57, which references the Equality Act 2010

· Episode 266 which refers to a ‘Breach of the Implied Trust And Confidence Term’, and

· Episode 302, which is one of many episodes that reference unfair dismissal employment rights.

If you are looking for specific episodes, use the search tool where you are listening, to find the episodes you are looking for.

Our FREE ‘WRITE IT DOWN’ Bullying Guide and Grievance Complaints Checklist are available here. Use these links or the links are in the show notes below.

Hi there

In this week’s episode, we’re looking at the impact of constant criticism at work and why this is a form of bullying, rather than you just having an over-zealous boss. We also talk about how you can tell the difference between genuine feedback, which should assist you and help you grow, as opposed to bullying feedback, which is intended to attack you and cause you harm.

The nature of a bully at work, is to make you feel so ill and powerless – you hide the bullying and try to manage the impact of the bullying experience on you for a number of reasons. What the bully does not expect, is for you to take steps to challenge their bullying behaviour.

There is a FREE ‘WRITE IT DOWN’ Bullying Guide with this week’s podcast. The link is in the show notes below.

Hi there,

In the first of our bullying episodes for 2026, we tackle the issue of what workplace bullying really is, what it can look like, how it feels, and what you can do if you think it’s happening to you.

The nature of a bully at work, is to make you feel so ill and powerless – you hide the bullying and try to manage the impact of the bullying experience on you for a number of reasons. What the bully does not expect, is for you to take steps to challenge their bullying behaviour.

In this week’s episode, we therefore look at one step you can take, which is to write down what is happening to you.

There is a FREE ‘WRITE IT DOWN’ Bullying Guide with this week’s podcast. The link is in the show notes below.

If you need help with any matters discussed in this podcast episode or you would like to book a consultation with us to look at employment rights concerns you may have, you can email us at enquiries@employmentrightsonline.com

Also, please take a moment to bookmark our podcast and leave a review or a star rating, to help lift the visibility of the podcast. We appreciate you.

Hi there

Happy New Year to all our listeners as we look forward to seeing how your employment rights actually protect you at work.

This week’s podcast is the last episode in our mini-series on the stronger rights you will have when dealing with sexual harassment in the workplace. In this episode, we specifically look at the new duties that will be placed on your employer, to protect you from suffering harm at work, because of sexual harassment.

Remember, in 2026, Bullying, Harassment And Toxic Workplace Cultures will be the number 1 topic that we will address, as our 2026 theme. Our whole Bullying, Harassment And Toxic Workplace Cultures programme is intended to support you to deal with bullying at work because bullying at work remains the number one disregulator of workplace performances and worker wellbeing. This is what you are telling us in your comments and questions… and in the consultations that you attend.

If you want to what is happening, your next step is to sign up to our FREE newsletter. Do that first! That will ensure you get all our information about our new service updates, free bullying tools and information about forthcoming podcast episodes, as soon as that information becomes available. The link is in the show notes below.
