David Yamada's "Minding the Workplace"

Here is a new blog that is worth reading: Minding the Workplace, the New Workplace Institute Blog, hosted by David Yamada.

David Yamada is professor of law at Suffolk University Law School, and founder of the New Workplace Institute.

Yamada is recognized as the expert in workplace bullying and the law. His article The Phenomenon of ?Workplace Bullying? and the Need for Status-Blind Hostile Work Environment Protection, 88 GEORGETOWN LAW JOURNAL 475 (2000), is a classic. And he continues to write and talk about workplace harassment and bullying.

His blog, which entered the field one month ago, goes beyond bullying, and covers a number of topics related to the workplace. Here's a sample:

• Website(s) of the Week: Society for Occupational Health Psychology
• Our Individual Responsibility as Workers?
• Workplace bullying and human rights
• ?HR was useless? [One of my personal favorites]
