Sexual Harassment in the Office

Sexual harassment is defined as the dignity and health of women or men suffered a non-necessary act or other conduct based on sex. It includes unwelcome physical, verbal or nonverbal behavior. Sexual harassment, the most essential feature is that for the victims (mostly women), it is not necessary and is undesirable. It has created bad effect to our work environment.

Sexual harassment in the office is often with the social and occupational privileges granted, such as the boss has sexual harassment on subordinates, with the threaten on losing a job. And it often takes place on the young office ladies. Therefore, the sexual harassment in the office is considered to be the most serious form of harassment, showing the state of gender inequality in the whole society. So the beautiful young office ladies should be careful and learn some methods to protect themselves.

One day, I saw a short story on TV. It told us a very good method to solve the sexual harassment. The lady was around 29 years old and her husband was studying abroad. She worked lonely to support her and her daughter's lives. And sometimes, she also had to send some money to her husband for further education. So the job was very important to her and she worked there for about 5 years. She was promoted to be a leader for her team last year, so she was happier and worked harder. But she had been suffering sexual harassment from her new boss for a few months. In order to keep the job, she didn't dare to speak it out and born it quietly. But the boss was more and more bold.

She really could not bear it any more and she finally tried to consult the lawyer to find some solutions to stop it. The lawyer suggested her to get the evidence firstly. If she had enough evidence, then it was much easier to take her boss to the court. The boss was also very cunning. The harassment always took place very secretly and no body saw it. So it was very difficult to get the evidence. She was distressed. One day, she came across a special spy camera on a web store. The camera was hidden in a normal pen. So she purchased one and put her boss to the court successfully with the help of the pen spy camera.

So, young office ladies shouldn't bear any kinds of sexual harassment passively. On the contrary,they should make good use of the actual situation to defend themselves with various methods.
