In the recent time we talk more often about abuse at work, but this does not mean that it did not exist in the past. Like the majority of the legal concepts, the abuse at work first appeared in the real life and later was legally regulated. The life is much faster than the law. Abuse at work has its official terminology, i.e. mobbing. However, the question is whether women are more often exposed to the abuse at work than men. What are the types of abuse suffered by women? Can woman on the managing position be abused by the employees? This paper has a goal to answer the question what did the state do in the area of law to prevent the abuse at work, or if the abuse is already present to eliminate it and punish the abuser.
