| Abstract | ||||
| Workplace bullying has become a very costly problem; it has a detrimental effect on employees, so that workplace bullying behaviors cannot be ignored. However, few studies have examined its impact on employees in Egypt. The present study aims to track the effects of bullying costs on both the victim and the institution, especially on the organizational environment in which bullying occurred. Quantitative research methods were used and the survey was distributed on Egyptian cement companies. It also explores the impact of workplace bullying on employee health, job satisfaction, productivity, and work turnover rate, and the absenteeism rate of employees, which ultimately accounts for its impact on costs and profitability. Quantitative approach is the most appropriate way to study, if the organizational culture and environment do not restrict such behavior – which may affect employee morale, and it is difficult to identify the bully directly, because harassment and bullying behaviors, career usually occurs in secret, and many times out of sight – the company may face long-term financial losses, as the study has proven that a negative work environment leads to a decrease in employee productivity. The correlation analysis also showed that aggressive behavior has an impact on job performance, and work turnover rate, absenteeism rate, productivity and job satisfaction. The current study focuses on an opportunity for them to understand the concept of occupational bullying behaviors and its forms, and a survey of Khans is used to analyze the closed questionnaire data s that were collected through the questionnaire by SPSS using descriptive analysis and multiple regression coefficient analysis to find out the effect of the independent variables affecting the dependent variable, and the statistical method of the simple correlation coefficient was used to know the strength and direction of the relationship between the variables of the study. The purpose is to survey a different group that consists of multiple members and sites of cement companies with different organizational cultures. Results of current research indicate that the practice of bullying is very common in Egyptian cement companies, and the results of the questionnaire showed the most important obstacles and their impact on the administrative environment.
