據1111人力銀行2013年調查，在職場中有高達54％的上班族曾經受到過霸凌行為，被霸凌者可能因此在工作上產生倦怠感(馮惠宜，2013) 。為探討運用正向情緒是否能提高技能，又或者運用社會支持來減輕負面影響。因此，本研究採用問卷調查法，以高雄市政府公教人員為例，來研究職場霸凌、工作倦怠、正向情緒與社會支持之關聯性。本研究以高雄市政府公教人員為研究對象，共計發放300份問卷，回收276份有效問卷，回收率為92%。以SPSS 24.0版統計軟體進行資料分析工具，研究結果發現：(一)職場霸凌對工作倦怠，具顯著正向影響。(二)正向情緒對於工作倦怠，具顯著負向影響。(三)社會支持對工作倦怠，具顯著負向影響。(四)正向情緒在職場霸凌與工作倦怠間具調節作用。(五)社會支持在職場霸凌與工作倦怠間具部分調節作用。基於研究結果，提出實務上應用之建議與後續未來研究方向之參考。
