The Supreme Court in the judgment of 23 January 2018 (reference number III PK 13/17) stated that the existence of close relations in the workplace between superiors and some employees negatively affects the objectivity of assessing the quality of work of individual employees by these superiors. Superiors who are privately in intimate relationships with employees are not able to efficiently manage the workplace because there is a conflict of interest. If any of the employees experiences mobbing, they are isolated from the employee team and cannot obtain support in the form of testimonies confirming their version of events among colleagues who are on the side of their superiors with whom they have personal relationships.
In a situation where it is difficult to obtain third party testimony, the court mainly relies on the opinions of expert psychologists and psychiatrists. A person who has fallen victim to mobbing may benefit from medical records that confirm the deterioration of their mental and / or physical health.
