Within the workplace, there are small things that go unnoticed by one person that seem aggressive to another. these have been referred to as _____.

Answer 1

These behaviors have been referred to as micro-aggressions. That is because they are small actions, but they are still aggressive behavior. They usually go unnoticed because they're so unobtrusive, but they're good at making people feel uncomfortable and like something is wrong. Engaging in micro-aggressions is passive-aggressive behavior.
