Summary:

Workplace bullying has long been identified in a range of disciplines and fields, but Anne-Marie Quigg's research suggests that the arts, despite subscribing to ideas like governance by consensus, respect for the individual and celebration of diversity, tolerate the highest level of bullying recorded in any employment sector in the UK and possibly elsewhere. So why should the normal rules governing the treatment of those who work in offices, factories and shops not apply in theatres and arts centres?.
