Workplace bullying has been empirically identified as a highly structural psychological hazard that exerts profound impacts on workers' physical and mental health, organizational operations, and the stability of labor relations. Historically, regulations governing workplace bullying in Taiwan were fragmented across tort liability under the Civil Code, obligations for psychological hazard prevention under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and various administrative guidelines; however, a clear legal definition and a systematized procedural framework remained absent. Following the 2025 amendments to the Occupational Safety and Health Act, which introduced Articles 22-1 through 22-3, workplace bullying has been formally integrated into the statutory system through a dedicated chapter. This marks a significant legal shift from an ex-post remedial orientation toward a framework centered on prevention and procedural governance. While recognizing the institutional breakthrough of legalizing workplace bullying through these amendments, this article further posits that the current legislation remains disproportionately focused on employers' procedural obligations and reporting mechanisms. Consequently, there remains a significant deficiency in regulations concerning psychological recovery, organizational restoration, and governance quality. To address this, the article constructs an ''Institutional Integrated Governance Model'' (IIGM) to systematically analyze the regulatory structure and governance blind spots of the new workplace bullying prevention chapter across three dimensions: legal liability, organizational governance, and psychological hazards. This article contends that the legislative objectives of psychological safety and the protection of labor dignity can only be truly realized by integrating statutory procedural obligations with prevention, restoration, and cultural governance at the organizational level. |
