Lately i have been asked questions about work place harassment and what can qualify as a workers comp claim in that realm. 
If someone at your job has been consistently harassing you, belittling you, embarrassing you on purpose in front of co-workers, using intimidation tactics, you might be subject to a claim.

These types of injuries fall under the PSYCHOLOGICAL injury category. 
What results from someone bullying you or harassing you at work? Typically we see injuries to the psyche, such as ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, STRESS, INSOMNIA, HYPERTENSION.  If someone has been using these tactics in the workplace and causing you to suffer from one of those ailments you may have a workers compensation claim.
