It is now just over two years since the Fair Work Commission was granted the ability to make stop bullying orders under the Fair Work Act 2009.
Fair
Work Commission statistics for 2014 – 2015 show that the Commission:
- received over 150,000 unique website hits regarding anti-bullying;
- dealt with over 6,300 telephone enquiries;
- processed 694 applications; and
- finalised 60 applications by a formal decision.
In
Bowker v DP World Melbourne Limited
[2015] FWC 7312, Deputy President Gostencnik made extensive orders to facilitate
the return to work of three dock workers he found had been bullied by
colleagues and union representatives and to monitor the situation to prevent
further bullying occurring.
