With the digital media development, the boundary between public employees' working hours and their leisure time is blurred, as they can be contacted outside of working hours through social media, SMS, and email. According to a survey conducted by the news magazine Danske Kommuner, more citizens choose to make use of this option in situations where they feel they have been treated unfairly.

The Danish Working Environment Authority has launched a campaign focusing on digital harassment in the workplace, designed to guide businesses in handling digital harassment among their employees. It is about having clear guidelines and a solid plan for managing situations and ensuring a safe working environment for all.
