The “workplace bullying” defined by the Labor Bureau refers to persistent offensive, threatening, neglectful, isolating, or humiliating behavior occurring in the workplace through abuse of power and unfair punishment. This causes the bullied person to feel frustrated, threatened, humiliated, isolated, and hurt, thereby undermining their self-confidence and placing them under severe physical and psychological stress.

I really have these out-of-control nightmares every day... The company doesn’t care about employees’ physical or mental health at all. I hope the Labor Bureau investigates. Anyway, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in the office in the dreams, so reviewing the relevant evidence should be very easy...

I dreamed that an employee was harassed for taking menstrual leave. The supervisor said that if the periods before and after it were less than a month apart, the employee could only take personal leave....

In the dream, a colleague had gynecological problems and often looked unwell, and was criticized for being negligent, absent-minded, and not focused on work.

This month, my period was very painful... I requested menstrual leave and said that after seeing a doctor, I was told that something had grown in my reproductive system and that I was advised to rest.

That supervisor insisted that if the periods before and after it were less than a month apart, I couldn’t take menstrual leave.

The only thing left was to take off my pants to prove it... Does this count as harassing an employee?

It seems there is no regulation saying that menstrual leave cannot be taken if the interval is less than a month.

In the end, the employee in the dream could only be forced to choose resignation.

There was also another supervisor in the dream who pressured employees to resign every day. He constantly yelled at employees and every half hour or hour would gather them together to stand at attention as punishment and berate them. Compared with Cambodia, the only thing missing here is physical abuse. It’s really absurd.

Every day I dream that he threatens and intimidates employees, saying they are the culprit behind the company’s impending closure: The company is going under... and it’s the employees’ fault! All kinds of sarcasm, all kinds of shouting and humiliation... It’s truly terrifying.

After yelling at everyone, he also says that if they’re unhappy, they can resign immediately and get out immediately. He wants people to leave, yet expects them to resign voluntarily?
