Abstract
Workplace bullying is currently a normal issue that proliferates worldwide. Essentially, research related to this topic has been conducted in many different fields and industries, but it remains scarce in construction sector. This paper explores the subcontractor bullying in Malaysian construction industry and identifies the impact of main contractor to subcontractor bullying. Data collection was implemented on 210 contractors of Grade 6 and 7 across Peninsular Malaysia. Based on Partial Least Squares—Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) analysis, the findings reveal that main contractor leadership and project organisation affect work-based bullying. However, the relationship between project organisation and job design with physical intimidating bullying was found to be not significant. The result of this study may assist the main contractors to understand their role in providing a better environment for the sake of project success.
