Stop Sexual Harassment


Sexual harassment is the last thing a person would think about at his or her job. It is also not expected to happen at a job, at college, or at a volunteer place. Sexual harassment can occur in a verbal, physical, and visual manner. Knowing how to distinguish the warning signs of sexual harassment is important. Also, it is fundamental to report it to human resources and the authorities if it occurs at work. 

If it occurs at college, you must report it to the college and the authorities. Do not leave out any details of what occurred. Sexual harassment is defined as inappropriate touching, indecent exposure, sexual comments, sexual gestures, or sexual requests. Additionally, a person who is being harassed might receive inappropriate gifts, inappropriate voicemail messages, sexual content in text messages, or written notes. Therefore, sexual harassment is without a person's consent. 

Men can get harassed but it is not reported that often. On the contrary, more women report sexual harassment at their jobs. It is required to take a sexual harassment prevention class when you are at work. Yet, most people do not take it seriously. Sexual harassment continues to exist and it has not ended. 

Anyone can sexually harass someone no matter what gender identity he or she has. If you are being harassed, save any written messages, text messages, or gifts for evidence of the incident. Do not delete or destroy unwanted messages. Last, consult with an attorney if you have been harassed sexually. Here are resources about sexual harassment.
