In On Aggression (1966), Konrad Lorenz (1903-1989), the Austrian-German founder of ethology, described mobbing among birds and animals, attributing it to instincts rooted in the Darwinian struggle to survive. In his view, we humans are subject to similar innate impulses but capable of bringing them under rational control. He jointly won the Nobel Prize for Physiology/Medicine in 1973.
About 1980, drawing upon Lorenz's work, the German-Swedish psychologist, Heinz Leymann (1932-1999) coined the term "workplace mobbing" to describe intense collective aggression toward a targeted worker by managers and/or co-workers. As a professor at Umeå University and as a clinician at his treatment center (Violen) in Karlskrona, Leymann conducted the foundational research.

On June 1, 2004, Quebec became the first North American jurisdiction to include protection against psychological harassment of employees in its Act respecting Labour Standards. The Quebec legislation signals a changing legislative and judicial attitude to abuse in the workplace. The common-law courts are slowly becoming more sensitive to the difficulties employees face in the workplace in relation to personal and psychological harassment.
