Preventing Sexual
Harassment for Employees
Most employees have heard the term
"sexual harassment". But many of
them do not know exactly what it
means. More importantly, they may
not be aware that some of the things
they do might be considered sexual
harassment. When people think about
sexual harassment they often picture
a male supervisor cornering a female
employee to make unwanted sexual
advances. While most reported cases
do involve females being harassed by
males, people of both genders, of
any age and of any sexual
orientation, can be victims.
The first in a two-part series on
sexual harassment in the workplace,
training products on "Preventing
Sexual Harassment... for Employees"
discuss various forms of sexual
harassment, explain how to avoid
inadvertently sexually harassing
someone and review the procedures
employees should follow if they feel
that they or a co-worker are being
sexually harassed. Topics covered in
these products include:
What constitutes sexual harassment.
Behaviours to avoid.
Recognizing victims and harassers.
Avoiding "accidental" harassment.
How to handle a sexual harassment
incident.

management.
and more.
Preventing Sexual Harassment for
Managers
Most managers and supervisors have
heard about fines and lawsuits
brought against companies that
ignore "sexual harassment". And
while they are the first lines of
defence in preventing sexual
harassment incidents, many managers
and supervisors don't know what
constitutes harassment, or what they
should do if it occurs. Complicating
things is that recognizing sexual
harassment can be difficult. Conduct
that might appear harmless to one
person could be harassment to
others.

workplace, training products on
