Tell someone

The first and most important thing to do is tell someone. Find an adult you can trust and explain the situation to them. If they do not listen, do not give up—find someone else to talk to.

Talk to your family or close friends

Let it out of your head; do not keep it inside. It is good to know that there will be people supporting you.

At work

Talk to a person in high position in the company about what has been going on. If the person does not want to believe you, talk to your local unions, or employment governing bodies for advice.

Tell the truth

When telling someone what has happened, even if you think it might seem small to them, do not be tempted to make anything up or exaggerate. Not only is it not good to lie (something that bullies often do), it never works out in the end. When people find out you have made something up, they will not believe anything else you say.

• Speak out. Even if you are not being bullied, you can take a stand against it. If you see bullying occur, tell an adult. Everyone needs to make it unacceptable for any form of bullying to occur anywhere.

• Do not blame yourself. It is not your fault that you are being bullied. The people who are doing this have the problem, not you. If you can try to accept this and feel better about yourself, it will give you greater confidence.
