(Ne)jasnost in (ne)razumevanje definicije trpinčenja v delovnem okolju

Plohl, Tina (avtor), Mesec, Bojana (mentor), Suhovršnik, Mojca (komentor)

V diplomskem delu sem raziskovala, kako zaposleni razumejo pojem trpinčenja v delovnem okolju, ali jim obstoječa zakonska definicija trpinčenja pomaga pri prepoznavanju tega pojava ter kako zaposleni to definicijo sploh razumejo. V teoretičnem delu sem se osredotočila na definicijo in terminologijo trpinčenja, problem neenotnih definicij ter razlike med strokovno in subjektivno razlago trpinčenja. Opisala sem tudi pravno ureditev trpinčenja ter predstavila različne oblike, vzroke, posledice in načine za njegovo preprečevanje. Izvedla sem kvantitativno empirično raziskavo s pomočjo spletnega anketnega vprašalnika, ki sem ga oblikovala na platformi Arnes 1KA. Podatke sem analizirala s pomočjo programa Excel in platforme Arnes 1KA ter rezultate predstavila v obliki preglednic in grafov. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da večina anketirancev meni, da pojem trpinčenja razume dobro, vendar se njihovo razumevanje ne ujema s pravno definicijo. Anketiranci trpinčenje najpogosteje opisujejo kot dolgotrajno psihično nasilje, poniževanje, zlorabo moči nadrejenih, najlažje pa ga prepoznajo v bolj izrazitih negativnih dejanjih. Podana zakonska definicija jim je bila pri prepoznavanju trpinčenja v pomoč samo v določenih primerih. Večina anketirancev je tudi menila, da iz definicije ni razvidno, kako dolgo se mora dejanje ponavljati, da ga lahko opredelimo kot trpinčenje. Po mnenju anketirancev je definicija trpinčenja preveč splošna, subjektivna in bi jo morali dopolniti s konkretnimi primeri.

Izvleček

The thesis examines how employees understand the concept of workplace mobbing, whether the existing legal definition of mobbing helps them identify it in practice, and how the definition itself is understood. The theoretical part focuses on the definition and terminology of mobbing, the problem of inconsistent definitions, and the differences between professional and subjective interpretations of mobbing. The legal framework governing mobbing is also presented, along with an overview of its various forms, causes, consequences, and prevention strategies. A quantitative empirical study was conducted using an online questionnaire developed on the Arnes 1KA platform. The data were analyzed using Excel and the Arnes 1KA platform, and the results were presented in the form of tables and graphs. The results showed that most respondents believe they understand the concept of mobbing well, yet their understanding does not always align with the professional definition. Respondents most commonly describe mobbing as prolonged psychological violence, humiliation, and abuse of power by superiors, and most readily identify it in more overt negative behaviors. The legal definition was only partially helpful to respondents in identifying mobbing. Most respondents also indicated that the definition does not make it clear how long a behavior must be repeated before it can be defined as mobbing. In the opinion of the respondents, the definition of mobbing is too general and subjective and should be supplemented with concrete examples.
