Workplace mistreatment is a burgeoning topic of interest, with the majority of workers having experienced it in some form. This book explores workplace ostracism and its negative effects on employee and organizational outcomes, such as employee attitudes, behaviors, and well-being. This edited volume defines workplace ostracism and examines how to differentiate ostracism from other type of workplace mistreatment, such as workplace incivility and interpersonal conflict. Among the questions it seeks to answer are: 1) what are the individual, relational, and contextual factors that influence employees’ workplace ostracism experiences; and 2) what constitutes ostracism in stigmatized populations, such as international students, immigrant workers, and older workers. Researchers in organizational behavior, I/O psychology, and the sociology of work will find this book to be a valuable resource.

“I most appreciate that the book provides both direct implications for practitioners and theoretical direction for scholars, and the two aspects are dynamically interwoven. … I love reading this book, from which I do learn a lot; and the learning is not limited to the research findings but on thoughtful suggestions to businesspeople. After all, business research serves the business practices, with a goal of realizing business success and at the same time maximizing employee wellbeing.” (Li-QunWei, Personnel Psychology, May 26, 2022)
