dc.description.abstractPurpose: This study sought to examine the impact of workplace bullying on employees’ burnout by investigating the mediating effect of affective well-being. Design/methodology/approach: Data of 532 employees from diverse organizations in Portugal was collected. This data was collected using anonymously completed structured questionnaires available online. Findings: The results support the research hypotheses proposed, confirming that workplace bullying is related to both affective well-being and burnout. Moreover, affective workplace bullying partially mediates the relationship between workplace bullying and burnout, indicating that the victims have their affective well-being reduced, and, consequently, increase their burnout levels. Practical implications: The findings suggest that organizations can foster employees’ affective well-being and reduce the level of burnout by encouraging organizations to develop preventive policies and practices to safeguard against bullying at work. Originality: To this date, only a few studies have examined mediating and moderating variables (Nielsen and Einersen, 2018) and none include affective well-being as a mediator of the relationship between workplace bullying and burnout. This study answers the call for further empirical research from those who have argued that more information is needed to understand the workplace bullying phenomenon and contributes to the growing debate on this topic and its effects on employees.pt_PT
