Professor Piñuel on mobbing affected, stated:
Most cases that victims narrate show a perverse and systematic use in our organizations of the scapegoat mechanism by which it is always convenient sacrifice someone, often the most vulnerable, to the harassment of the majority in favor of maintaining the status quo and domination over others. [...] With this grim picture, workers set between them a new pact of mutual indifference that breaks any possibility of organizing collective defense of their right to dignity and health at work. This is how the expected reaction of the workers who witness mobbing is the development of "not me" syndrome.
