MORAL HARASSMENT AT WORK UNDER THE FRENCH LEGAL SYSTEM - ANALYSIS OF RELEVANT CASE LAW
Abstract
France is well-known for its solid and fierce social system, particularly in terms of employment. However, despite the French legislator's efforts to create a legislative protection shield for the French employees, moral harassment at work developed itself as a silent, ever-growing and - at a certain extent - tolerated phenomenon which led to a significant number of suicides. This paper aims to present the proper, complex and thorough legislative protection granted under the French legislation against various types of acts of moral harassment at work. In particular, this paper shall analyse the most important cases of moral harassment at work that French employees have had to deal with during the last years and that had been submitted for ruling with the French Supreme Court. This paper shall also outline the main conclusions that may be drawn from the diverse and intense activity of the French courts of law in the field of moral harassment at work and the impact of such guidelines in framing the scope of the legislative definition of moral harassment at work.
