A bill introduced in the Assembly to combat workplace bullying is quickly gaining support from both lawmakers and hundreds of New Yorkers from all corners of the state who have signed on to a petition to end workplace bullying.

Bill A.3250, sponsored by Assemblyman Steven Englebright, D-Setauket, has broad support in the Assembly, with 79 additional Assembly members co-sponsoring the legislation. Known as the Healthy Workplace Bill, it is related to the Healthy Workplace Campaign, which is a national effort to address workplace bullying and abuse.
