Abstract

PELLEGRINI, Priscila Gasperin; TOLFO, Suzana da Rosa  and  MORE, Carmen Leontina Ojeda Ocampo. Workplace bullying, retirement and family dynamics: repercussions identified by the couple. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2021, vol.22, n.1, pp.29-39. ISSN 1984-7270.  https://doi.org/10.26707/1984-7270/2021v22n103.

This qualitative study aimed to understand the repercussions of workplace bullying and the process of retirement on family dynamics, from the perspective of the couple. It is a single case study, in which the wife was retiring while experiencing workplace bullying. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with the couple. Categorical content analysis was performed. Results showed direct repercussions of workplace bullying on the wife's physical and emotional condition and also caused conflicts in the family, which required a reorganization and adaptation of family subsystems. The conclusions indicate the importance of recognition of marital and family relations, as intervention strategies to cope with workplace bullying, in the labor context, in the retirement phase.

Keywords : workplace bullying; psychological violence; retirement; family relations; work.
