Workplace Bullying

Who is Amber Turner and What Value can she bring to You and/ or Your Organisation?

Welcome to Amber Law, Gibraltar’s first and only Holistic Law Firm, founded in 2013.

My name is Amber Turner, founder of Amber Law. I am a Barrister and Acting Solicitor, called to the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple (London) in 1998 and a UK Accredited Mediator since 2014. I read a Master’s Degree at Bristol University in 2001/ 02 in Employment Law. I have 17 years’ litigation experience in the areas of employment, family and children law in the Magistrates Court, Supreme Court and Employment Tribunal of Gibraltar. I am also a Speaker, Workshop Creator and Trainer. I working alone and lead or collaborate with teams. I am currently writing my first book.

Since early on in my litigation practice, I have represented both Employees, Employers and Union Members in the Employment Tribunal (originally the Industrial Tribunal) of Gibraltar.

The Gibraltar Employment (Bullying at Work) Act 2014 made it possible for targets of bullying to take legal action. I have successfully acted for both individuals and groups in actions against Workplace Bullying. I have drafted the Workplace Bullying Policy Handbook collaboratively with Unions, Charities and Employers.

The mental, emotional, physical and financial effects of Workplace Bullying on Employees and Employers, can be devastating. Targets of bullying and co-workers witnessing this conduct, may suffer stress and anxiety, become fearful, feel frustrated and impotent, angry, depressed and in extreme cases, suffer death by suicide. The targets of bullying, their families and co-workers are all affected in what I refer to as, ‘the ripple effect’. It goes without question that this impacts workplace morale, productivity and profitability.

Bullying is so serious that in my view it is everyone’s duty to take individual and collective action to co-create healthy and safe working and learning environments. This is possible with the right education, awareness and Training.
