Research indicates that being treated as invisible is actually more widespread and psychologically damaging than active forms of aggression like bullying.

The research argues that organizations must expand their anti-harassment policies to include acts of omission and foster environments of active inclusion. By implementing structural changes and manager training, leaders can address this silent crisis that undermines both individual well-being and collective performance.","meta_description":"This research explores workplace ostracism, a subtle form of mistreatment where employees are ignored or socially excluded rather than overtly harassed.
