Our mission

Make this a crime.

Physical violence is a crime. Theft is a crime. But the slow, calculated destruction of a human being through gossip, mobbing, gaslighting, and engineered isolation? In almost every country on earth, it is treated as a personality conflict. Our long-term goal is to change that, in workplaces, in policy, and in the public conscience.

The legal record so far

A handful of countries have already made the case that psychological workplace harm deserves consequences. That precedent is the foundation we build on.

First workplace anti-bullying law in 2002, strengthened in 2007.

Labour standards act becomes one of the first in North America to prohibit "psychological harassment" at work by name.
