SEXUAL HARASSMENT TRAINING

  • Sexual harassment occurs when someone is subjected to unwanted sexual advances, petitioned for sexual favors, or physically/verbally abused.
  • Harassment doesn’t have to be of a sexual nature – it can include offensive remarks about a person’s sex. For example, you could be guilty of harassing a man if you make offensive comments about men in general.
  • Simple teasing or offhand comments might be allowed, but harassment is illegal when it creates a hostile or offensive work environment.
  • This sexual harassment training course teaches you how to recognize and understand sexual harassment so that you can help to maintain a happy work environment, free from hostility and discomfort.

MORE ON SEXUAL HARASSMENT TRAINING

Sexual Harassment Training
Sexual Harassment Training

Sexual harassment training is important because harassment may involve various forms of verbal and physical conduct, of both a sexual or non-sexual nature, which have the purpose or effect of creating a hostile or offensive work environment.

What Constitutes Sexual Harassment?
In the UK, the Equality Act of 2010 defines sexual harassment as "unwanted conduct of a sexual nature which has the purpose or effect of violating someone's dignity, or creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for them." The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) in the US legislates against Sexual Harassment under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Although many sexual harassment cases are brought by female plaintiffs alleging conduct by a male colleague or supervisor, such claims can also involve harassment of male employees by female supervisors or colleagues, same-sex harassment, or claims that the environment was hostile for male and female employees alike. The conduct need not consist solely of lewd acts, sexual innuendos, or sexual advances. It is enough that the conduct, whether blatant or subtle, discriminates against a person on the basis of his or her gender/sex.

Verbal Harassment
Offering employment benefits in exchange for sexual favors, descriptions of people, commentary on bodies, sexually degrading words used to describe people, jokes, name calling, repeatedly asking someone on a date when they have said they are not interested, whistling, or catcalling.

Non-Verbal (Visual) Harassment
Unwanted or offensive emails, texting, websites, blog posts, or other social media; displaying suggestive objects, pictures, cartoons or posters, obscene notes, letters, or invitations.

Physical Harassment
Gestures, touching, blocking people’s way, massages, head petting or stroking, standing too close, or purposely brushing up on someone.

Teasing and Offhand Comments
Depending on the impact on the individual, simple teasing or offhand comments might fall outside legal guidelines, but harassment is always illegal when it creates a hostile or offensive work environment.
