A position statement on bullying that clearly states the unacceptability of bullying behavior in the work context of nurses has been requested.  This would be in addition to the other resources that NZNO provides on recognizing, addressing and preventing bullying in workplaces.

The draft attached has had input from NZNO staff members and was drafted using research about nurses and colleagues in other health professions who are at elevated risk of experiencing bullying at work.
