Bullying at work

shoekitten

I really don't know if I'm paranoid or I'm being bullied for real. My supervisor constantly puts a negative spin on anything I acheive at work. She mentioned my off putting personality during my monthly appraisal. One month she told me to step my game up and take charge more, the next month she accused me of being bossy. She constantly overloads me with more work than my colleagues, If I say anything she replies " well if you can't do it you're letting the team down".

I confided in her that I suspected I may have Aspergers (only because she was brow beating me about getting upset at work) I begged her not to take it further but she has now told my manager, Occupation Health and Human Resources. I'm worried sick now as I don't know how to deal with these meetings. Help...anyone?

  • You can ask for someone to be present in any such meeting. Your employers cannot refuse that - they might argue, but they'd have to prove there wasn't anything improper going on.

    You could also insist that your supervisor's meeting was in the presence of her boss.

    As long as you stick to facts and don't make accusations, and just appear to be doing your job as best you can. 

    Things appear to have escalated since the occupational health interview that your supervisor insisted on. That suggests to me that your supervisor has been reprimanded.

    Also I reiterate, I recall you saying in another thread that the work you did had something to do with disability. If you are in such an organisation they have particular need to ensure internal processes are "squeaky clean".
