Report of the Inspector of Mental Hospitals, 2001: Statements.

 

There are many other things we take for granted and do not speak out about. For example, bullying in the workplace can be viewed as a form of mental health problem. The bully may be a boss and go unchallenged for years, causing major mental health problems. It behoves all of us to challenge this. This applies equally to alcohol abuse and it is encouraging that many more local politicians are taking a strong line on it, which I have observed as a member of the health board.
