This paper will explore the impact and implications of moral harassment in the workenvironment – namely bullying and power harassment– and what needs to be done to prevent and reduce such harassing behavior regarded as labor risk in consideration of mental health, which is a critical issue in the area of occupational health and safety. In the laws of Belgium, this form of abusive behavior is considered moral harassment and falls in the domain of labor risk. Though bullying and power harassment at work have been expressed by numerous terms and definitions, this paper takes the same approach as Belgian law in discussing how moral harassment should beregulated by law and identifying possible challenges.
