Sexual harassment

Sexual harassment at work is unacceptable and a workplace risk. It can be considered serious misconduct.

Sexual harassment often goes unreported, as victims may be unsure of what is considered ‘workplace sexual harassment’ and what to do when they experience it.

Employers, co-workers and advice-givers, who may be family or friends, may be unsure of what they should do.

Workplaces should include guides and policies on how to deal with incidents and reports of sexual harassment, as well as how to prevent sexual harassment from happening in the first place.
