Abstract

This study aimed to present how the Executive Secretariat course professors perceive moral harassment in their work environment. Therefore, we sought to define the practices that are configured as moral harassment and where they can arise. The research sought to answer the following question: How do the professors of the Executive Secretariat course perceive mobbing in the work environment? The theoretical framework dealt with conceptualizing moral harassment, showing its consequences and impact on worker productivity and health; still, conceptualize the descending and ascending vertical and horizontal moral harassment. The methodology consisted of exploratory field research, applied to teachers from two educational institutions, one of public higher education and the other of public technical education in the state of Roraima. The sample consisted of 70% of the professors of the Executive Secretariat course of the higher education institution and 25% of the professors of the technical education institution. All respondents are trained in Executive Secretariat. Among the main results, it is highlighted that about 60% of the professors claim to have suffered bullying from co-workers of the same hierarchical level; and regarding their attitude towards moral harassment, 80% of respondents advise victims to report the case to the competent authorities.
