Análisis del impacto del acoso laboral vertical en la eficacia institucional educativa.
Resumen
El acoso laboral vertical representa un fenómeno creciente en instituciones educativas que amenaza el bienestar individual y organizacional. Este estudio determina su impacto en la eficacia institucional mediante una revisión sistemática de investigaciones publicadas entre 2012 y 2022, siguiendo las directrices del Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. Los hallazgos revelan que este tipo de acoso reduce la productividad laboral hasta en un 60%, deteriora la calidad educativa al disminuir el compromiso docente y la innovación pedagógica, y degrada el clima organizacional generando desconfianza y fragmentación profesional. Se evidencia que este acoso constituye una amenaza sistémica para la eficacia institucional educativa, y se sugiere implementar estrategias preventivas y de intervención temprana que promuevan entornos educativos saludables.
