DESCRIPTION: Workplace bullying is increasingly recognized as a serious thr
 eat to employee health and organizational sustainability\, yet in the Unit
 ed States it is still framed primarily as a legal or interpersonal issue r
 ather than a public health concern. Drawing on survey data from 729 higher
  education professionals\, this presentation examines workplace bullying a
 s a chronic stressor with measurable consequences for physical\, psycholog
 ical\, and relational well being. Findings demonstrate strong associations
  between bullying and insomnia\, anxiety\, depression\, elevated blood pre
 ssure\, increased substance use\, and suicidal ideation\, as well as dimin
 ished interest in physical intimacy and strained home relationships. Groun
 ded in spillover theory\, the session illustrates how unresolved workplace
  harm migrates beyond the job\, disrupting family life\, health behaviors\
 , and long term wellness. Particular attention is given to the disproporti
 onate burden experienced by women\, people of color\, and gender and sexua
 l minorities\, highlighting bullying as both a health equity and retention
  issue. The presentation also interrogates the normalization of self medic
 ation and the quiet reliance on pharmaceuticals as coping mechanisms withi
 n high stress work cultures. Participants will be invited to reframe bully
 ing as a health harming workplace condition and to consider proactive well
 ness centered responses. Practical recommendations are offered for institu
 tions seeking to move beyond individual resilience narratives toward preve
 ntion\, accountability\, and cultures of dignity that protect both people 
 and productivity.\nSpeaker: Leah P. Hollis
