“…When it comes to experiencing cyberbullying, victims rarely report cyberbullying incidents to the relevant authority figures, choosing to rather confide in their peers (Tokunaga, 2010;Sonhera, Kritzinger, & Loock, 2011;Huang & Chou, 2013).

The world is an interconnected global village due to the increasing adoption and reliance on technology, but an ugly side of the increased usage of technology has come to light. The issue of harassment and abuse on the internet has led to relatively new issues such as cyber harassment, cyber incivility and cyberbullying.A case study was conducted within two faculties at the University of Cape Town (UCT). The research objectives were: to find out how staff members in a workplace have experienced cyber incivility, to find out what effects cyber incivility has on employees, to find out what the motivations are for staff participation in cyber incivility, and to find out what policies a workplace should have in place in order to deal with cyber incivility.The data collected shows that there have been occurrences of cyber harassment and cyber incivility among staff members at UCT. The following effects were found to be consistent with cyber harassment and cyber incivility: decrease in productivity and a toxic working environment. On an individual basis: anger, negative feelings and feelings of inferiority, feeling demotivated, feelings of fear and intimidation, feeling emotional and upset, irritation, loss of self-esteem, stress and wasted time.

“…Some youngsters sometimes consider the relationship between the sender and the receiver of the bullying act; that is, an online disagreement between friends may not necessarily be tagged cyberbullying.

“…They are not just those who witness the bullying act as at the time it happened, but could also be after several days, or months (Shariff, 2008). They will always have an option of being part of the problem or the solution (Huang & Chou, 2013).…”

“…The cyberspace is just an extension of the bullying activities that might have occurred on the 'school space'. While traditional bullying might be physical and about one's popularity or fame, cyberbullying is more of internet proficiency (Patchin & Hinduja, 2006) and ability to conceal one's identity (Ybarra & Mitchell, 2004;Huang & Chou, 2013).…”
