OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore the strategies employed by nurses to
manage workplace bullying. DESIGN: Qualitative descriptive study. SETTING: The
study was conducted in a hospital located in western Iran between 21 March and 22
September 2023. PARTICIPANTS: A purposive sample of 14 nurses was selected.
METHODS: Data collection was conducted through semistructured in-depth
interviews. The collected data were analysed using a conventional content
analysis approach. Lincoln and Guba's (2004) criteria were employed to ensure
data validity. The data management process was facilitated using MAXQDA software
(2020 version). RESULTS: Nurses' experiences of workplace bullying were
categorised into two themes: 'constructive strategies' and 'non-constructive
strategies'. These themes were further divided into categories: 'seeking
support', 'individual empowerment', 'avoidance', 'confrontation' and 'no
reaction'. The subcategories encompassed specific strategies employed by nurses
to manage workplace bullying. CONCLUSIONS: The findings demonstrate that nurses
use both constructive and non-constructive strategies to manage workplace
bullying. Understanding nurses' strategies for managing workplace bullying can
assist managers in developing comprehensive intervention programmes to address
these issues. It is crucial to provide nurses with training on using constructive
strategies and avoiding non-constructive ones. Creating a healthy and supportive
work environment and addressing the psychological and social aspects of bullying
phenomena also play a vital role in reducing and managing bullying behaviours.
