The main objective of this chapter is to analyze the relationship between occupational stress and workplace bullying in the educational sector. The data used for this research is obtained from the 5th European Working Conditions Survey, conducted in 2010 by the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions. Given the objective of this work, it is collected a sub-sample of 261 education employees that includes a part of the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO-08) sub-group 23: teaching professionals. In order to test the research model and hypotheses this study relies on the use of partial least squares (PLS-SEM), a variancebased structural equation modeling method. The study describes a workplace bullying prevalence rate of 4.4% among education employees. This work summarizes an array of outcomes with the aim of proposing, in general, that workplace bullying may be reduced by limiting job demands and increasing job resources. © 2015 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
