The meta-analysis on interventions against workplace bullying examines the effectiveness of various strategies in addressing and preventing bullying behaviours in organisational settings. Through a comprehensive synthesis of 19 relevant studies, the meta-analysis reveals that interventions such as cognitive rehearsal, educational programs, and supervisor support training are associated with reduced bullying incidents and promoting a culture of civility in the workplace. However, the possible presence of the Hawthorne effect in the studies and the notable risk of bias across the analysed data suggest caution in drawing definitive conclusions. The study also highlights limitations in study designs and reporting practices, emphasising the need for methodological improvements and standardised reporting protocols in future research endeavours. Recommendations are provided to enhance the quality and rigour of studies in this field, aiming to advance knowledge and understanding of effective interventions against workplace bullying.
