question 45

True/False

There are two federal laws that can be applied in workplace bullying: the OSHA Act of 1970 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The OSHA Act of 1970 states that employers must provide a safe and healthy working environment for their employees. Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, if an employee in a protected class (e.g., gender, religion, ethnicity) is bullied by another employee, the action might be illegal based on the concept of a hostile work environment.
