I’m sorry you experienced that. Employers have way too much power.
It will definitely be as hard to prove as sexual harassment, and while that law isn’t perfect, it did move the needle on safer workplaces.
I think you mean at will employment in #2. Workers definitely need a baseline of rights, and ending employment at will is key.

They don’t choose abuse while they’re there. Workers should have a right to psychological safety.

There are. They would need proof.

That’s not at all true about sexual harassment. What is your source on that?
Reducing this issue to “big meanies” is condescending. There are abusive tactics people use to keep themselves in power. It’s about their insecurity. Regardless, I don’t know what your statement means.
At will is also toxic. Employees do not have many rights.

Do you believe the same about sexual harassment law?

Yes! Anti-discrimination law requires proof of discriminatory intent, which is absurd. This law would strengthen protections for those who feel they’re being discriminated against.
Usually employers vilify people who make discrimination complaints so they can avoid liability.

“Spam”? That’s minimizing. It’s advocacy for an issue that’s killing people.

Tell that to the families of workers who died by suicide after relentless abuse of power. Your understanding of it completely disregards science and the way the human brain works.
If you can’t be decent to employees, don’t be in business.
If it weren’t a problem, it wouldn’t need to be regulated. It’s an epidemic.
Right now, it’s a drag on employees. It kills people.

Not inviting you to a work event is one example. Leaving you out of meetings you need to be at. There’s more info in the website listed.

Most people are targeted for being high performers, not for being low performers.

That’s not how the bill is designed though. It focuses on employer behavior and holds them accountable for it, regardless of health harm and just like sexual harassment law.

That sounds like a nightmare. Workers need more rights. This stuffing of the pockets of C-suites has to stop.
