2024 WBI U.S. Workplace Bullying Survey

100% of funds applied to cost of running the Survey

The Survey Tradition

Abused and bullied workers rely on the Workplace Bullying Institute (WBI) to confirm they are not crazy or worthless. The WBI national scientific prevalence surveys provide the statistical proof of their sanity. Workplace bullying in the U.S. is an epidemic! The five past surveys in 2007, 2010, 2014, 2017, and 2021 provide the proof. Follow the link to see past survey results.

The WBI national survey results are the most-cited findings by media regarding workplace bullying/abusive conduct. We commission Zogby Analytics, national pollsters, to run the WBI-written survey using a representative sample of all adult Americans, making the survey a "scientific" one. Because of our special relationship with Zogby, we pay a fraction of the fee other pollsters would charge.

Our prevalence statistics convince non-believers who want to deny that abusive conduct destroys the careers, health and families of its victims. It happens and it hurts! Work shouldn't hurt! Workplace abuse is the only form of abuse not yet taboo in America.

Our History & Work

We, Drs. Ruth and Gary Namie, are WBI founders. June 2024 marks WBI's 27th anniversary. The WBI website is chock full of advice for targeted people and their families counter the tsunami that bullying brings to their lives.

Besides the periodic national surveys, WBI lobbies for enactment of the anti-bullying Healthy Workplace Bill. This is the original legislation of its kind aimed at adult victims.

We have over 200 videos on the WBI YouTube Channel . Have a look.

The third week of October is WBI's Freedom From Workplace Bullies Week .
